Founder ’ s Day

10 Apr 2015

More than three centuries ago , Saint John Baptist de La Salle founded the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools . A few hundred years later , on this day every year , his legacy is celebrated by the Lasallian schools that have since sprung up around the world and he is remembered and revered for his dedication towards educating the lessprivileged . Distinguished alumnus Mr Eugene Wijeysingha ( Class of 1953 ) was the Guest of Honour to celebrate this joyous occasion with us . Along with this , the school also celebrated the academic and sports achievements by our fellow peers and schoolmates , attained through consistent hard work and determination . Enthusiastic applause and loud cheers could be heard throughout the ceremony as Josephians congratulated their peers on the fruits of their labour .
