A proud moment for all at SriLankan as the Kalmunai School is completed

Friday, 27th October 2006, was a day of celebration for all at SriLankan Airlines, as it marked the official completion of the reconstruction of Al-Bahriya Maha Vidyalaya, the Tsunami-devastated school in Kalmunai that we helped to rebuild.

The school’s building complex was declared open by our CEO Peter Hill, together with Dr. Johannes Bussmann and Volrad von Lutzau of Lufthansa Technik and Rita Diop of Help Alliance, who flew in from Germany for this important occasion, and Dr. Roland F. Steurer of GTZ.

What began as a project to rebuild just the Primary section, grew in size and scope as it progressed. The final product, at an investment of Rs. 78 million, includes:
 
A new 3-storey Primary building of 27,950 square feet with 18 classrooms, a Music Room, Dance Room, Toy Room, Library, Counseling Rooms, Assembly Hall, Principal’s Office, Staff Room, and all support facilities.
Two renovated 2-storey buildings and a 3-storey building for the Secondary School with 20 Classrooms, a Library, and a Science Lab.
Two fully equipped Computer Rooms equipped with 42 PCs and 2 Servers, which will introduce and educate these young minds to the wonders of modern technology.
 
This remarkable project was completed in just eight months through the contribution of all employees of the company. The project was spearheaded by the staff of Properties & Facilities, IT, and Public Relations, who worked under the direction of the SriLankan Cares Trust and its Working Committee.
