A mind-blowing original creation by Diyathma

 බොහෝ ළමයි scratch වලින් හදන්නේ සුරංගනා කතා. මං කියලා දෙන්නෙත් එහෙම ඒවා. Scratch වල ගොඩක් තියෙන රූප පවා ගැලපෙන්නෙ හැරී පොටර් වගේ කතා වලට.

අපේ වැඩසටහනේ ගන්න, 9 ශ්‍රේණියේ දුවක් හදපු මේ story එක මගේ හිත සසල කලා. අපි හැමෝම දක්ෂතම ළමයි ගැන කතා කරද්දි එහෙම වෙන්න බැරි ළමයිනුත් පන්ති වල ඉන්නවා. ඒ ළමයින්ගේ මානසික පීඩනය අපි ඇත්තටම හඳුනාගන්නේ නෑ. ඒත් ළමයින්ට අපිට වැඩිය ඒක දැනෙනවා. ඒකයි එයාලා මේ වගේ ප්‍රකාශනයක් කරන්නේ.
සෑම දෙමාව්පියෙක් විසින්ම, සෑම ගුරුවරයෙක් විසින්ම, සෑම ළමයෙක් විසින්ම මේ කතාව බැලිය යුතුයි.
තාක්ෂණයට එහා ගිය දෙයක් දියත්මා අපට කියනවා. මං කැමති ඒකට. ඔයාලත් බලලා අනිත් අයට share කරන්න.

Tharulis Story

 We always find future stars in our programs and try to empower them to reach world-class. That strategy has worked well when I see around after some time.

May 31 2020
This is Tharuli, a little girl in grade 6 and just 11 years old. She is shining in Girls in Technology junior online coding training program started after Covid -19 pandemic just two weeks back. She is not only among the best in her age but helps us upgrading the program by making us learning from her.
She makes me wonder with her cool creations. I wish she could bring an IoI medal to Sri Lanka one day and win a scholarship to study at MIT. We want to develop more girls and boys like this.
This is her scratch profile.
