G.C.E.O/L students have less than two and half months to sit for the Examination.Batuwangala Maha Vidyalaya have implemented several projects to up hold the strength and confidence of students.From 6.30 in the morning students will have to come to the school and from 6.30 to 7.30 there will be English Sessions.The speciality is the CLC manager,Aruna Sir conducts this sessions using OHP and other Technologies related to Classroom.Among them Computers are given priorities.We do not use CEB electricity for this purpose.We use our own Hydro power plant's power do do this session.
The power we generate through the Picohydrow power plant is still under test run and we believe we will be able to run more equipments in near future.We would like to thank Practical action And the Students of Open University of Sri Lanka for helping us to Have a Picohydro power plant.
Batuwangala Maha Vidyalaya now lightened by this power during night time.And we believe we have been an example for sustaining development in Villages.Sustainable development is a pattern of resource use that aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for future generations. The term coined what has become the most often-quoted definition of sustainable development as development that "meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."In this regard We,Batuwangala maha vidyalaya is confident and happy to see our villages expand their knowledge with the knowledge of their children work together to make this county even better.
