For the staff Christmas celebration 2016 we had an outreach programme with the Dumbara No: 2 Tamil Vidyalaya in Ingiriya. This programme brought a smile on the children’s faces in this school, giving them much fun and laughter during the time of “Christmas cheer”. The members organised this event at the expense of sacrificing their Christmas Get – together, in order to show love and care, and to bring the message of Christmas to the less fortunate children.
