PROJECT SUMMARY
As SLIIT is an institutional facility largely recognized by the country, it is necessary to provide students and staff with various facilities One such facility would be to provide the SLIIT staff and non-staff parents with a pre-school and day care center for their children
Pre-schools provide children with a structured learning experience which helps develop their mental, emotional, physical and social skills while day care centers provide a safer environment for toddlers to learn and develop various skills. SLIIT staff and non staff parents are guaranteed a safe and secure environment for the growth of their children as the project is located within SLIIT premises
