This initiative empowers students to develop critical thinking and creativity, applying cross-curricular knowledge to bring their learning to life and drive change in their communities.

Orlando Edwards, Country Director of the British Council in Sri Lanka, said:

"Congratulations to the winners from Royal International School, Kurunegala — their initiative to encourage learning outdoors, and the use of solar power, was truly inspiring, and I hope will have great impact going forward. Your World is a great example of the advantages of being a British Council Partner School: we create opportunities for students to participate in impactful global competitions."

The winning team members from Royal International School, Kurunegala said:

"This victory reflects not just our effort—but our essence. Inspired by the green ethos of Royal International School, we transformed our surroundings into a sanctuary of sustainability, giving birth to the Wildwood School concept—where nature is not just the setting, but the teacher. To be crowned national champions on this prestigious global platform is both an honour and a responsibility—and a powerful reminder that creativity rooted in purpose can echo far beyond borders."

Your World continues to raise the bar, demonstrating the power of education in preparing young people to become global leaders.
