Success of Scholarship Examination!

Punsara Kavinda,  my cousin son has passed the 2014 Scholarship examination with 183 marks and district rank of 23rd. This is a big achievement as a primary school there are another 2 children have also exceeded 150 margin at the exam. This is important achievement as village school children perform well with protecting the danger of closing down with many reasons as officials claim.
There may be hundreds of such clever students drop out from schools due to lack of opportunity to enrole even for primary education.
Punsara, we wish you all the best.
Congratulations!
