Empowering Education Through Technology: Smart Classrooms and Transformative Support Across the Upcountry, January – June 22, 2026

During the first half of 2026, Manitha Neyam Trust (MNT) continued its commitment to expanding educational opportunities for students across Sri Lanka’s Upcountry region through a series of impactful initiatives. By investing in technology, learning resources, and essential educational infrastructure, MNT is helping create more inclusive, engaging, and effective learning environments for thousands of students.

Smart Classroom Initiative

One of the most significant achievements during this period was the establishment of Smart Classrooms in nine schools across the Upcountry. These technology-enabled learning spaces provide students and teachers with access to modern educational tools, helping bridge the digital divide and enrich the teaching and learning experience.

Smart Classrooms were established at:

  • Passara Tamil Maha Vidyalayam, Passara
  • Sri Shanmuha Tamil Maha Vidyalayam, Monaragala
  • Poonagala Tamil Maha Vidyalayam, Poonagala
  • Saraswathi Tamil Maha Vidyalayam, Miyanawita
  • St. Mary’s Primary Vidyalayam, Bogawantalawa
  • Kataboola Tamil Maha Vidyalayam, Kataboola
  • Glenlyon Tamil Vidyalayam, Agarapathana
  • Bharathi Tamil Vidyalayam, Talawakelle
  • Shivanantha Hindu College, Punduloya

These Smart Classrooms are transforming education by enabling interactive lessons, improving access to digital learning content, and equipping students with the skills needed to thrive in an increasingly technology-driven world.

Strengthening Educational Resources

In addition to establishing Smart Classrooms, MNT provided a range of essential educational resources to schools throughout the region.

Photocopy Machines

To support the preparation and distribution of educational materials, photocopy machines were donated to:

  • Aditya Tamil Vidyalayam, Lindula
  • Eltofts Tamil Vidyalayam, Bogawantalawa

Multimedia Projectors

To enhance classroom instruction and student engagement, multimedia projectors were provided to:

  • Bharathi Tamil Vidyalayam, Mirahawatta
  • Vocational Training Institute, Nuwara Eliya

Furniture for Special Needs Students

Recognizing the importance of inclusive education, specialized furniture was provided for children with special educational needs at:

  • Malaimahal Hindu Central College, Deltota
  • Osborne Tamil Vidyalayam, Hatton

School Bags for Young Learners

School bags were distributed to students in several primary schools across the Upcountry region, helping ease the financial burden on families while encouraging regular school attendance and participation in learning.

Student Enrichment Programs

MNT also supported academic enrichment initiatives designed to help students achieve their educational goals:

  • G.C.E. Ordinary Level (O/L) Coaching Seminar – Ratnapura Tamil Maha Vidyalayam, Ratnapura
  • Grade 5 Scholarship Practice Examinations – Zonal Education Office, Hatton

These programs provided students with valuable preparation, guidance, and opportunities to strengthen their academic performance.

Creating Lasting Impact

Through these combined efforts—expanding access to digital learning, strengthening school infrastructure, supporting inclusive education, and providing essential educational resources—Manitha Neyam Trust continues to play a vital role in advancing educational development throughout the Upcountry region.

These initiatives represent more than charitable donations; they are strategic investments in the future of children, schools, and communities. By equipping educational institutions with modern tools and resources, MNT is helping create pathways to knowledge, opportunity, and long-term social and economic development.

Thank You to Our Donors

Together, we are making a meaningful difference—one school, one classroom, and one student at a time.
