Thalawila Wella School

Books open and ready to learn

This school near Marawila, North of Colombo, caters for around 140 children from the ages of 5 to 14 years.

The SCT first became involved here in 1999, by installing electricity and helping to upgrade some of the school’s basic facilities. Since then, largely driven by Saga guests staying at nearby Club Palm Bay Resort, as well as Saga volunteers, the school has many new facilities, including additional classrooms and a fully functional computer room.

The regular visits by Saga guests not only help with resources but also encourage the children to practice and become more confident in English.
