Posted on 21 June, 2012

I am moving to Colombo this summer as Head of an International Junior School.  I would be keen to network with other local educators, being new to the country myself.

Ayubowan and Wanakkam David,

Warm wishes for a wonderful stay in Sri Lanka ! 

I'm working as an Program Manager at Sarvodaya (www.sarvodaya.org), a national organization working on an integrated development approach. We do have international schools connecting with us especially on their social engagement/community service programs. 

At Sarvodaya, my main responsibility is in coordinating the 'Learning To Live Together' - Inter-cultural and Inter-faith Ethics Education program for Children. ( www.ethicseducationforchildren.org ). The program is an international program developed by the Arigatou Foundation in collaboration with UNESCO and UNICEF, coordinated from their office in Geneva. I coordinate the program implementation across South and South-East Asia. I'm involved in programs for Children, training youth leaders & educators on using the 'Learning To Live Together' (LTLT) manual and of recent working with authorities to integrate concepts and approach for National School Curriculum and teacher training.  

I'm right now in Tanzania, helping out with some Learning To Live Together programs here and will be back in Sri Lanka from 3rd of July. I look forward to keep in touch with you and possibly meeting up sometime. If there is anything I can help out with during your first weeks in Sri Lanka do let me know. You can catch me easily on facebook at www.facebook.com/suchith

Hello David, welcome to Sri Lanka...

I'm a teacher of Computing and I've been teaching the Edexcel, AQA and CIE syllabuses for a while now... Hmmm... around 20 years - smiles...

Apart from teaching, I run a little business creating software for the US (and sometimes UK).

I'm in Colombo and it would certainly be a pleasure knowing you.
