Our Story

Founded in February 2006 in the serene village of Millawa, Dharmavijaya English Dhamma School emerged from a vision to bridge ancient Buddhist wisdom with contemporary education. Our journey began with a simple yet profound mission: to create a sanctuary of learning where children could discover the timeless teachings of the Buddha in the English language.

Under the guidance of our esteemed Principal, Ven. Rev. Kithulpe Ariyadhamma, we have grown from humble beginnings to become a beacon of Buddhist education, recognized both locally and internationally for our commitment to nurturing wisdom, compassion, and mindfulness in our students.
