Its picturesque valleys, woodlands, mountain ranges and salubrious climate provides the right environment for academics. The aim of the school is to impart public school education with a firm moral base and to prepare cadets academically, physically and psychologically for entry into National Defence Academy, Khadakwasala. Ghorakhal is connected by an all weather road with the nearest rail terminus at Kathgodam (32 kms). Ghorakhal was a ‘jagir’ presented by the British rulers to General Wheeler in 1870.In1921, he sold it to the Nawab of Rampur. According to a popular folklore, in 1857 a British General astride his horse was making a desperate bid to escape from Audh for fear of revolutionaries when he happened to stray into this area. His horse got tired, fell into a pond and died, so the place was named as Ghora (Horse) Khal (Pond). Then the Government of UP purchased the Estate from the Nawab of Rampur in 1964 to establish the School. Finally, Sainik School Ghorakhal was opened on 21st March, 1966. Ghorakhal is perched on a hillock, at an altitude of 6000 ft. (amsl) and commands a panoramic view of Bhimtal, Sattal and Naukuchiatal. The famous Golu Devta Temple dedicated to one of the local deities, is situated on a hillock amidst shady oaks. This provides the ideal environment for education. NDA CODE

It is an institution we should take pride in and observe the laid down rules/ regulations to maintain and keep up its dignity. Some tips on mess etiquettes have been listed below: Dos • Observe Punctuality. • Follow the dress regulation strictly. • The senior most dining member occupies the seat at the head of the table. • While seated, sit erect without leaning lazily on the back of the chair. • Mess is the place where you can talk, therefore, talk freely but in a soft and subdued voice. • When you take or leave your seat, take permission from your neighbor by saying “excuse me”. • After the meal is over, replace your chair. • Complaints, if any, should be lodged with Mess Committee or Mess manager. • After the meals, leave the dining hall gracefully. DON’Ts • Do not drag the chairs. • Do not rest your elbows on the table. • Do not heap up your plates with food stuff. • While eating do not keep your mouth open. • Do not produce any noise with cutlery. • Do not leave your seats when the meals are in progress. • Do not shout for the bearer. • In case your neighbour’s seat is vacant (but the table laid) do not eat from his plate. • Do not get up for a second helping, instead ask your neighbor to pass the dish over to you. • Do not enter into a dialogue with the bearer or any member of the mess staff. • Do not criticize the food when the meals are in progress. • Do not start blowing your nose and cleaning your throat while seated at the dining table. • Do not leave the head seat of the house vacant. • While talking to your neighbours, do not hold the cutlery up in the air. (Reformation, like education, is a journey, not a destination.) -27- • While passing over the cutlery to any one, please see that the sharp edge is towards you. • The music should be played at acceptable volume only by the School Captain/ Vice Captain with the permission of Duty Master.
Eating meals starts from the outside in. The fork on the left hand side, farther from the plate is the salad fork. The fork closer to the plate is for the main course and the dinner knife would be on the right hand side closer to the plate. Dessert spoons and/ or fork are above the plate. The bread and butter knife is placed on the upper left hand side. Wine or water glass is on the upper right hand side and if the glass has a stem, hold it from the stem. Napkins are placed on the plate or on the left hand side. Wait for the host/ chief guest to be seated and unfold his/ her napkin first. You should place your napkin on your lap. If you have to excuse yourself from the table, place the napkin on the chair, if you need anything, remember to use “Please and Thank You” to the waiter. Wait patiently for everyone at the table to be served before starting to eat.
