Official Opening
The KSV "Yorkshire School" was officially opened on the 24 November 2007.Nine Rotarian's and guests from five District Clubs (Huddersfield, Knaresbrough, Skipton, Sowerby Bridge & Thirsk) attended the opening.
The team were enthusiastically welcomed and all presented with garlands of fresh flowers as the chuildren waved Union Jacks & Sri Lankan flags.
The trip was an enormous success as the team finally saw the completed school and the children that would benefit from all our hard work in raising the funds for the appeal.
This was a wonderful experience that I would not have missed and I thank all the kind people of Yorkshire that donated to the appeal as their gift has changed the lives and education of the children of Batticaloa forever.
