Prison Babies in 2007 - 2009

What we basically do in Prison Babies is to visit the prison and play with children living in there. Since their outdoor activities are limited and are deprived of a normal childhood existence with family and friends, instead spending their days with prisoners and institutional staff, the students at OSC have decided to visit them to spend at least an hour with them.













However, we were not able to visit the prison for the security reasons for last few years. Fortunately, we could still have contact with them and bring them to our campus that we were able to continually meet with them every Thursday after school. Most of us are non-Singhalese speakable. We cannot understand every single words they are saying, but still we can see and feel the innocence and brightness in them. We believe that we ain't so different, but we are much more similar in many ways that we can be good friends. We hope to believe that they would feel the same way as we do.












From the year of 2009, we are planning to visit the Prison more often. We've been planning this from last year, but it didn't really work well because it was hard to get the permission from them. We could only visit there once from last year, but this year, we are planning to be more active. As the long Sri Lankan civil war is over, we wish that it'll be much easier to get the permission to visit them.
