The Navy's generosity helped the students, who have little access to meet with foreigners and hear English being used by diverse users in various accents, to have a real life experience with the language they are eagerly learning under the kind guidance of their beloved teacher, Who has been striving very hard to improve the English knowledge of her students by enlisting the support of all well-wishers like the Navy. A number of teachers and parents also accompanied the students on their journey to the capital city of Colombo.
