Supporting Children Beyond the Scholarship Examination
Sri Lanka’s Grade 5 Scholarship Examination represents an important stage in primary education. However, students’ educational needs continue after completing the examination.
By providing school bags and exercise books, this initiative delivered practical materials that students can use as they continue their studies.
The donation also demonstrates how community organisations and members of the Sri Lankan diaspora can work with local schools to address clearly identified educational needs.
