Care Leavers
It was always her dream to be a nurse
Care Leavers
Capping Ceremony
On the last Saturday in June we were very proud that one of our care leavers, Rangani, was ‘capped’ as a nurse. This is an old nursing tradition where student nurses receive their nurses’ cap before starting on the final stage of their nursing studies. The ceremony took place in the large indoor stadium at Sugathadasa. It was a moving ceremony with hundreds of student nurses all smartly dressed in their starched white uniforms. Families were invited and our girls’ co-ordinator Kalpani went to support Rangani with Nishantha, Brighter Path General Manager and one of the other girls from the transition home. It was always Rangani’s dream to be a nurse and we have supported her throughout her training. She has done so well with her studies and is looking forward to completing her training soon and becoming a full time nurse.
