Watawala Guru Upahara concludes

Watawala Tea, an FMCG company under the Sunshine Group, has developed an interesting concept in student-teacher relations, and brought a new flavour to their corporate social responsibility initiatives in the education sector. Titled Watawala Guru Upahara, this initiative was launched by Watawala Tea three years ago to keep alive the concept of students honouring teachers who have made a lasting impact in their lives.

The initiative, which was launched islandwide, was an essay competition open for anyone from any educational institution to participate. This year the essay title was about how a student perceived a teacher who has made a difference in their lives.
