The Story
There’s a moment in history that we probably all remember. That horrible moment in 2004 when the tsunami hit.
Dutch couple Eugene Bay & Matthieu Sosef were caught up in that terrible tragedy. Sleeping soundly in their beachside villa when awoken by a terrifying sound. The tsunami was coming. It wiped away much of the village of Talpe. But, miraculously, Eugene & Matthieu escaped. Scooped up by the villagers, running for refugee to Talpe’s (Buddhist) Temple.
A year after, they returned with donated goods to help rebuild the village of Talpe, but there was a strong desire to do something lasting.
Their decision was made. By building a preschool, they would make a lasting monument that memorizes the bond they shared with the villagers. The build was soon started and the school was finished in December 2005. The official opening was a memorable day for the whole village.

Throughout the years, we have built a wonderful community around our preschool and will do everything we can to make that sustainable for the future. Here are a few parents of the children talking about the school:
“It has been so lovely to see multiple generations of kids
go to Isuru preschool.”
(Mala, head teacher since 2006)
“There are many preschool choices in and around Thalpe area. However, Isuru Preschool is a special place and I’m having my second child here now. Not only do children learn academics, how to follow rules, and manners, they also start to discover what their curious minds and strong bodies are capable of.Everything from the art projects, to the various theme monthly programs like environment trip, meditation programs are terrific. It is more than a school. It is a family and a home for our kids. I really appreciate how the teachers recognize each child’s strengths, and encourage them to grow in a loving, nurturing environment. My children and I will always have special memories of the preschool and teachers at Isuru.”
K. Shriyani Geethanjali, Mother of a Three Year Old Student“I’m having my second child at the Isuru Preschool. We could not be more pleased as my first child got 100 marks for mathematics at school, who studied here two years ago. It is everything we envisioned preschool to be. The teachers are warm and loving, and they help the children transition to a preschool setting.
