About Our School
Allamano Special School is a boarding institution that provides specialized education, therapy and care for children with various mental and physical disabilities, helping them reach their full potential and lead fulfilling lives.
Established in March 1988 as a specialized division within Wamagana Primary School, we later transitioned into our own separate and independent institution in 1996. Today we serve 100 students with dedicated staff and modern facilities.
We receive generous support from many well-wishers, both through financial contributions and by helping to build classrooms for the children.
