A group of students of this school recently visited the Treasury during an excursion to Colombo and they received an unexpected opportunity to meet Finance Minister Ravi Karunanayake. At there the students said the minister that there were several talented sportspersons in their school but they cannot come forward in the absence of a well-quipped playground.

Accordingly, the minister donated this money to the school fulfilling his pledge made to the students at the meeting.
