Mencafep children show creative talent

-

An exhibition by children with special needs was declared open by Additional Secretary Mallika Amarasekar­a at the Mencafep Institute in Nuwara Eliya on Monday.

A special feature was that the exhibition included creations by children on estates in Walapane, Welimada and Nuwara Eliya.

The Mencafep Institute was founded in Nuwara-Eliya nearly three decades ago by Britishers Chris and Ranji Stubbs to care for children with special needs in the area.

Ms. Amarasekar­a appreciate­d the great service the Mencafep Institute was doing.

Several Government and non-government­al sector officials attended the opening event.
