Livelihood assistance by Assist RR in Batticaloa

Assist RR spent a couple of days in Batticaloa and visited a number of remote villages there.  It was sad to note that there are no A/L students from 65 families in two villages and only 3 O/L students there.  There are a number of children who are keen to progress but the environment is not conducive to learning.  A significant number of children have been walking up to 26 kMs to school everyday.  A bright girl started crying and asked us to help her to continue her education and to become an English teacher.
