Picture of class under a tree

A class being taught under the tree. They are about 8 years old. They are Tamil speaking but have Sinhalese names and come from Sinhalese families. They are Buddhist, Christian, Hindu and Moslem and all seem to show an amazing tolerance and respect for each others beliefs. Quite a lesson for some of the adults in this country !
