Principal’s Message
It is with great pleasure I pen this message to the school WEB and I consider myself privileged to be part of Sri Sumangala College Panadura, an institute which has been functioning exceptionally with a proud history over 113 years. With the rapid advance of communication, the world has become a global village and people are interconnected through the use of novel media technologies. It is a fact that having updated information of the school forum would be an ideal channel to provide information to all over the world.
Sri Sumangala College, Panadura being one of the leading schools in the country has provided a great number of excellent personalities and expert scholars in diverse spheres. The utmost intent of the school is to develop skills, competencies and qualities in order to face social and global challenges, while productively contributing towards the sustainable development of the world. The college prioritizes a well-balanced education which shapes different personalities specified in distinct fields. Our greatest achievement as a school is not only producing well educated individuals, but also to provide young gentlemen with good morals and human values. Therefore, the school extracurricular activities, co-curricular activities, sporting programs and various student organizations play a vital role in realizing these aspirations.
I would also appreciate the timely efforts taken by all parties to launch this website in order to provide access to updated information of the school, its growth and innovation.
