Shilpadhi - Phase 03

UoM Leos know that it is a greater work to educate a child, in the true and larger sense of the world than to rule a state. That’s why we are conducting seminar series in selected schools island wide. Already we have successfully finished several phases of Sipmansala. We changed this event name as ‘Shilpadhi’ since our last phase conducted at Saliyapura Vidya Pradeepa monastic college, Thissamaharama.



Shilphadhi at Thissamaharama was successfully conducted on 7th and 8th September 2019. This phase was special and became more valuable because there were so many monks who were eager to learn. But they were left strangled because of not having a proper teacher. So, it was nice experience to teach not for older monks but also for little monks. Since it was essential to give as much as we could give, Leos conducted a night teaching session also. The dedication of the participated UoM Leos and prospects was highly appreciated. Leos are always capable to move with the situation, therefore they used their night time to explain some complex parts in mathematics.

Though there was a long journey and many working hours, Leos and prospects did not feel tired since they were offered with a new spiritual living two days with monks. Shilpadhi phase 3 ended by adding extra value to the UoM Leos’ chapter.

Fly for Green

It's always better to start with children. Those pure souls always make sure to effect a difference in the society with the values they gain.






'Fly for Green' a kite festival with the theme ‘Save Green to Save Life’ organized by UoM Leos in cooperation with the Lions’ Club of Matara Nilwala was successfully held on 30th of August at Kaduruwana Public Ground, Matara. The main expectation of the program was to promote polythene-free recreation among children. Members of Kaduruwana Children's society together with their parents joined hands with UoM Leos in making this event a success.A Plastic and Polythene abatement programme was also conducted along with the kite competition.


After the awareness programme in the morning, children were grouped and they were given some time to make their kites. All the kites were made with eco-friendly raw materials provided by Leos. Necessary guidance was given by the Leos and Prospects for their creations. The program was impactful in developing hand skills, creativity and teamwork among children. Many of the children were delighted to see their kites flying up in the sky while some learned to correct their mistakes and struggle until the end. Winners of the competition were awarded valuable gifts in the evening. Lions’ Club of Matara Nilwala sponsored us with the gifts and refreshments.

Talent wins games, but ‘Teamwork’ and ‘Intelligence’ wins championships. Out of all, ‘Teamwork’ indeed has been the substantial reason for our greatest achievement so far, the Most Outstanding Leo Club of Sri Lanka for two consecutive years.

Shells Over Trash phase 2

Marine pollution has become a serious issue around the world today. It affects Sri Lanka greatly because the ocean around the whole island has been recognized as contaminated, hence threatens the lives of the ocean. Many endemic species have been included under the endangered category in the Red Data Book due to the marine pollution occurred recent past.





“Thousand miles begins with a single step” is a famous saying which is followed by UoM Leos. To minimize coastal pollution, UoM Leos launched the second phase of beach cleaning program, named “Shells Over Trash – Phase 2” on 24th August 2019 at Panadura beach. A Kite festival which was organized by joining hands with MJF foundation, has also been held parallel to the Beach cleaning activity to raise more awareness towards the program. The kites were built without using polythene or plastic as a symbol of our initiative towards a sustainable future without polythene.




We were able to clean the beach and also collected a lot of plastic and they were given to “ZERO TRASH” for recycling. “PICKME(SRI LANKA)” sponsored us in transporting these waste. The event concluded successfully with the participation of UoM Leos and prospects and the blessings of nature friends.

Sipmansala Phase 1

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”

“Sipmansala 2019” is a project launched by Leo Club of the University of Moratuwa to enhance not only the educational background but also the motivation of the students,
who are facing their GCE O/L examinations this year. The first phase of Sipmansala was successfully completed on 12 th of July
2019 at Narawala Maha Vidyalaya, Galle.

We also conducted a motivational program to build the mindset of the students through their
economic problems and others. Our leos encouraged students to make a better version of
themselves. The seminar series is basically targeting the mathematics syllabus for upcoming
O/L examination. “Swasnaka Sansadaya” donates all papers which needed for this seminar.






After project completion, we saw the impact of the students’ satisfaction become more relevant.
We got very good comments from those children that inspired us more to continue the same
deed in the future. Finally, by conducting this project, we realized that true happiness can only
be found by helping others to find it.
