A beacon of excellence celebrates 170 years- By A J M Mushtaq Source:Sundayobserver The history of St. Anthony’s College, Kandy is a remarkable tale of resilience, dedication, and excellence. This prestigious institution’s journey began in the 19th century and has left an indelible mark on the education landscape of Sri Lanka. Catholic missionaries first arrived in Kandy, despite the British colonial rule following the kingdom’s fall in 1815. Notably, it was Rev. Fr. Felice Zoppi, a Franciscan hailing from the Chinese missionary field, who ventured to Kandy in 1853 under the guidance of Monsignor Joseph Bravi.

The school’s motto, “LUX DE COELO” meaning “Light from Heaven,” symbolised its noble mission. In 1867, St. Anthony’s School received a Grant-in-Aid from the Schools Commission, thanks to the relentless ...

Dr. A.T. Ariyaratne 1931-2024: Founder of Sarvodaya Shramadana Movement in Sri Lanka By Antonio Carvallo (Image by Pressenza) Source:-pressenza Born November 5th 1931, Dr. Ahangamage Tudor Ariyaratne founded Sri Lanka’s Sarvodaya Shramadana Movement.

Tudor Ariyaratne, his wife Mrs.Neetha Dhammachari Ariyaratne, their family and close collaborators, developed the concept inspired by Gandhi, as well as Buddhist philosophy, to promote ...
