Mahaweli Primary School (Central Province)
Project Description
CP/KOT/Mahaweli Primary School is a small, underprivileged school located in Beramanna village, far from Bogahawatta town, within the Kotmale Divisional Secretariat of Nuwara Eliya District, Central Province. It serves 146 students and is supported by 7 teachers. The children come from low-income families, mainly farmers and daily wage labourers living in nearby tea estates and small farms. For years, the school and surrounding community suffered from an unreliable and unsafe water supply, affecting hygiene, sanitation, and the learning environment. Although a well existed on-site, the lack of a proper pumping and storage system meant consistent access to clean water was not possible.
Location
Beramanna Village, Kotmale Divisional Secretariat, Nuwara Eliya District, Central Province, Sri Lanka.
Reason to choose this project
The absence of a reliable water storage and pumping system forced students and staff to depend on unsafe and inconsistent water sources. This posed health risks, hindered hygiene practices, and disrupted daily activities. The project was chosen to provide a sustainable, safe water system to improve sanitation, health, and learning conditions.
Activities We Have Done
Conserved and reconstructed the school’s water source using concrete rings.
Laid a 650-meter pipeline from the water source to the school premises.
Carried out trenching and concreting where necessary to protect the pipeline and ensure durability.
Renovated the 2000-liter water tank and iron stand, repositioning them securely.
Rearranged all water tanks on the premises for effective use.
Repaired or replaced damaged pipelines and restored the water supply to the existing latrine complex.
Installed taps for existing handwashing units, ensuring functional and reliable water access across the premises.
Community Contribution
Community members actively participated by transporting materials to the construction site and supporting unskilled labor tasks throughout the project.
