A/L
Building
22 million Rupees were estimated for this four-storey building,
which was funded by Caritas Hungery to house 100 tsunami
affected children in a hostel on the third floor of the
building. This new A/L building was built replacing the old A/L
building. It provides three laboratories, one lecture theatre
for 150, 18 class rooms and a hostel with two dormitories. Some
pictures show when it was under construction.
  
Primary Building

The new three-storey building
was built at the primary school premises. It provides 20 new
classrooms, a principal’s office and two staff rooms and a
computer room. The purpose of constructing this new building is
to reduce the number of students per class to 35-37 in order to
make teaching and learning effective and to provide spacious and
well-equipped classrooms.
We record with thanks the
donations made towards this cause by the Old Boys’ Union of
England with Rs. 500,000.00, 88’ Batch with Rs. 200,000.00, 70’s
Circle with chairs and desks for one classroom and Mr. Susantha
Perera with not less than Rs. 200,000.00 collected from
different sources.

Swimming Pool Project
The newest addition to St. Sebastian’s College
is a new swimming pool which was declared open by
His Lordship Rt. Rev. Dr. Marius Peiris, the Auxiliary
Bishop of Colombo, also an old boy of St. Sebastian’s
College. The happy event took place on the 30th of
December 2006; four days after the island commemorated
the 2nd anniversary of the Tsunami disaster. AFLAC
International, Founded and headed by Mr. Elmo Jayawardana
and assisted by Mr. Dayantha De Mel, has come forward
to build this swimming pool at college premises. This
swimming pool is thus called ‘AFLAC International
Pool’. This is a joint project by AFLAC Int.
and St. Sebastian’s College, Moratuwa. The purpose
of building this pool is to help less fortunate children
of Moratuwa learn swimming and get off the fear water.
The contract between AFLAC Int. and St. Sebastian’s
College will be valid for 10 years, after which it
will be evaluated and rescheduled.
