How Can a Television Transform a Rural School?
Many children in the rural areas we support come from families where parents are either illiterate or had to leave school early due to financial struggles. For these children, school is not just a place of learning; it's their window to the world. Without access to a television at home, their exposure to knowledge and opportunities is limited.
Here's how a television can make a difference:
- Substitute for Teacher Shortages: In areas with limited academic staff, schools use televisions to fill in gaps, providing essential lessons that might otherwise be missed.
- Support Extra Classes: For students who cannot afford private tuition, evening classes with educational content become possible through the use of a TV.
- Visual Learning for Practical Subjects: When schools can't afford materials for practical learning, visual content on TV helps students understand these subjects better.
For these children, a television is not a luxury—it's a crucial tool for their education.
Take Siri Parakumba Vidyalaya, a small school nestled in the rural but stunningly beautiful region of Nawalapitiya. The school educates about 120 students from Grade 1 to 5, children who dream of overcoming the challenges they face through education. Thanks to our generous donors, the donation of a television is helping them take a big step forward in their learning journey.
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to our monthly donors, whose contributions make projects like this possible.
