The sixth annual Kekulu Art Competition for pre-school children, was held recently. The Kekulu Privilege Card creating opportunities for children to begin their education was introduced by Hettigoda Group at the event.
It is the first time an FMCG in Sri Lanka has launched a loyalty card for children, offering a host of benefits like free school books and bags, school equipment, bicycles, and laptops.
To receive a Kekulu Privilege Card and be eligible to receive these school books and equipment, schoolchildren are required to send, two kekulu soap wrappers, a kekulu cologne cartoon, a kekulu toothbrush carton, and one Kekulu toothpaste carton.
Siddhalepa also presented the Kekulu Privilege Card to the 100 students whose entries were selected as the best from over 60,000 entries from all districts of the country at this year’s Kekulu Art Competition.
Siddhalepa’s meaningful value addition to their annual island wide art competition to promote the natural talents and skills of our younger generation, is expected to keep the momentum of the Kekulu Range of childcare products through out the year and give an impetus to children to aim for a free school equipment package.
Siddhalepa’s Kekulu Art Competition is open to preschool children in all 25 districts of the country. Held district wise the competition culminates with an overall winner from each of the 25 districts, at an awards ceremony, held this year at the J.R. Jayewardene Centre, Colombo 7.
W. Enara Anne Virgini from Anuradhapura District won the first prize, while P.R. Tesanda Paminda from Ratnapura District was placed second. The third best entry was from Gangul Wijethunge Jayawardena from Galle.
