LET THE CHILDREN SPEAK

A Small Miracle of Hope in Sri Lanka

The Centre for Education of Hearing Impaired Children (CEHIC) in Dalugama, Kelaniya, Sri Lanka.

Welcome to our Special World where we are learning to become part of Your World which is also Our World. We are special because we are Hearing Challenged.

Our home is the CEHIC in Dalugama, Kelaniya, Sri Lanka. It is where we are taught to Hear and Speak and grow up like normal children. At CEHIC we believe that a hearing impaired child is not a child who cannot hear but one who is LEARNING TO LISTEN

We believe in Habilitation and not Re-Habilitation.

Using the AUDITORY-VERBAL METHOD in a Holistic, Child and Parent Centred Pre-School Education programme, our children are INTEGRATED into the mainstream educational system and into society alongside their hearing colleagues. Our children are therefore able to contribute creatively with loud and positive voices to the betterment of our society.
