During the centenary celebrations of Swami Vivekananda’s return to India from the West in 1997, Ramakrishna Mission, Batticaloa, inaugurated Vivekanandapuram—a housing settlement with various amenities—aimed at assisting the underprivileged people of Navatkudah.
The Mission constructed 27 houses along with restrooms, a community hall, a nursery school, a children’s park, and a network of gravel roads as part of Vivekanandapuram. Additionally, a temple was renovated during this occasion.
Vivekananda Nursery School was established to cater to the educational needs of this community. Presently, the school has 29 students enrolled.
The school is located approximately 1.3 km from Ramakrishna Mission, Kallady, Batticaloa.
