Deepaloka Maha Vidyalaya (Central Province)
Project Description
CP/KOT/Deepaloka Maha Vidyalaya is a large and underserved school in Beramanna village, far from Bogahawatta town, within the Kotmale Divisional Secretariat of Nuwara Eliya District, Central Province. It serves 518 students (235 boys and 283 girls) and is supported by 35 teachers (5 male and 30 female). Most families rely on farming and daily wage labour for their livelihoods. Despite being a major school in the region, it faced serious water supply and sanitation challenges due to outdated infrastructure, insufficient storage capacity, and long-distance piping without adequate protection. The sanitation facilities were also inadequate, particularly for male students, teachers, and children with special needs.
Location
Beramanna Village, Kotmale Divisional Secretariat, Nuwara Eliya District, Central Province, Sri Lanka.
Reason to choose this project
The school lacked a reliable water system and adequate sanitation facilities, which created health and hygiene issues for students and staff. The absence of proper storage tanks, durable pipelines, and inclusive facilities for special needs children made daily life difficult and compromised the learning environment. This project was selected to provide a sustainable, safe, and inclusive water and sanitation solution.
Activities We Have Done
Constructed new concrete bases (5.5 ft × 5.5 ft, 4 in depth), plastered and painted for durability.
Renovated and upgraded existing school buildings to support the improved water system.
Installed a 2000-liter water tank as the main storage for the school.
Cleaned the slab of the male toilet and installed a 1000-liter water tank for its use.
Cleaned the slab of the teacher’s toilet and installed a 1000-liter water tank.
Installed a 250-liter tank on a stand for additional water needs.
Provided a 500-liter tank specifically for the section for children with special needs.
Carried out trenching at a depth of 1 foot and installed a new 200-meter pipeline system.
Laid concrete over exposed pipeline sections to protect against damage.
Repaired an existing sink and constructed a new handwashing sink.
Installed new pipeline connections to three latrines to ensure consistent water supply.
Community Contribution
Community members actively participated by transporting materials to the construction site and supporting unskilled labor tasks throughout the project.
