by mentioning the UN theme of the Women’s day 2013. It was the “Women’s Day Meeting
at Gavel on 11th of March at 5.00 p.m in 215 Hall, Sumanadasa
building. It was an exciting meeting
because both girls and boys had a lot to share about women. Boys make fun as they criticize girls. Yet
they do appreciate the presence of women in their lives as mothers, as sisters
and of course as girl friends. Girls are definitely proud of being girls.
