Laura McGoldrick Instagram – In one of Colombo’s toughest neighbourhoods, I met kids with the biggest dreams- future teachers, nurses, engineers, even sports commentators.
Life isn’t easy here. About 40% of students attend school irregularly due to challenging family circumstances, and across South Asia, girls are three times less likely to go to school than boys.
Yet hope is alive in every classroom. For many, school means safety, friendship, and a chance to build a better future. With the right support, those dreams can go even further. | Posted on 13/Nov/2025 00:30:00
