Norbuling Rigter College

Essay Contest

Inspiring creativity, critical thinking, and expression through engaging essay writing competitions for all students.

Norbuling Rigter College (NRC) organises the annual Rigter Essay Contest for high school students of Classes XI and XII. The contest aims to promote a strong culture of reading, critical thinking, and writing among young learners, and to nurture their ability to express ideas clearly and thoughtfully.

Launched in 2019, the competition has become a meaningful academic platform for students to engage with contemporary issues and showcase their writing talent. The results are announced on 1 November each year, in celebration of the Coronation Day of His Majesty the Fifth King of Bhutan, giving the event both educational and national significance.
