December 2012 Update

From the Principal

Dear Johnians and Well-wishers,

We are pleased to present an update on the Educational support programme for the displaced children, as of December 2012.

The programme continues to progress satisfactorily due to the excellent support rendered by our old boys and well–wishers

to whom are greatly obliged. Your continuous support for the last three years is the mainstay of our programme, and enables

us to administer this programme successfully to the benefit of the internally displaced children at St. John’s College.

739 displaced children have been admitted to the college (351 boarders + 388 day scholars) since the initiation of the project

in 2009, including new admissions for the year 2013. 326 children (202boarders + 124 day scholars) have left school to date,

in order to resettle in Vanni with their families under the resettlement programme undertaken by the Government.

At present (March 2013), we have 413 children (149 boarders + 264 day scholars) in the College. In addition to meeting the

children’s educational and day –to – day needs, the students are also encouraged to pursue their individual interests and to

take part in all the college activities. The children continue to progress satisfactorily in all areas and their contribution to the

school, especially in sports, is commendable.

The Education support programme provides tuition facilities to the students who require them. Students are also provided

with opportunities and training to sit for spoken and written English exams held by the Institute of Western Music and

Speech, which is the largest and most progressive Examining Body in Sri Lanka.

Stage VI of the programme – Educational support to the needy children in Tharmapuram, Uduthurai, Shanthapuram and

Thaneeruthu in the Vanni area, continues to provide evening classes and a total of 169 children attend these classes at

present. Preschool teachers are also being trained for trilingual English medium program in order to support those affected

area, the aim is to increase the educational standard of the area, especially their English proficiency.

I once again would like to thank all the old boys and well wishers whose generous assistance helps us carry out this

programme successfully. The college, including the internally displaced students, value your timely help greatly, and your

continued assistance will ensure a bright future for these children.

May God bless you all.

Thank you,

Sincerely yours,

Rev. N.J.Gnanaponrajah

Stage VII – Education support to the needy children in up-country

We have already made considerable progress in this area, but the cry of the needy boys and girls in the up-country remind me there is still much work to be done. In addition to St. John’s, Morbray Girls School in Kandy is also in similar circumstances, with their financial status in much need of support. Given the right sponsorship and attention, I sincerely believe we can continue our progress in both schools concerned, with the start of the Stage VII Program being our immediate goal. This is our next step for the future.

Comments

It is an excellent idea and we thank God for such thoughtfulness to support the Vanni needy children to go

through their education at St. John’s.

Mr.& Mrs.V.R.Amarasingham

My Best wishes go to you and the staff for the success of the gigantic enterprise that you and the alumni of St.

John’s have undertaken.

M. Morton Peto.

I thank the Lord for placing you all in the administration and for giving you all the vision and faith to undertake

this huge commitment of caring for and educating these young people.

Ravi Casinader.

You are all doing an excellent job to our community.

N.Jeyakaran (old boy of JHC)

God Bless you for the wonderful work you are doing.

Catholic Bishop of Canbera

I congratulate you all, and earnestly pray that God will steer you all through a very difficult path way “seek ye

first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you.” Looking at the

pictures of so many little boys in their smart uniforms, the activities of teachers, the well maintained buildings,

and the fine gardens gives much hope for the future.

Dr.Malati Rajasingham.

Thanks for taking care of the IDP kids at St. John’s College. I know earlier days you have to go through some

tough times and a lot of challenges to accommodate these kids but today everyone praising about your work

and courage.

Mr. Hudson Solomons

We are very touched to see the kids’ letters and informations. We will appreciate everything that our college is

I heard that our school is doing great Service the Displaced School Children which is an excellent news & keep it up. Mr. C. H. Rajkumar

I would like to thank you all for the great work you are all doing in accommodating the IDP children and for all your assistance during the past year. Nancy Gunaratnam

We received a very good feedback from Raj regarding our program at school and specially from the speeches from the boys and once again, we are very pleased the way you are taking care of the children and thank you all for your services rendered to our school. Mr. Vignapalan

Thanks for doing a grat job. Mr. Albert W Anandaraj

God bless you and your wonderful work. Rev. Eardley Mendis We feel St. John’s College is like a giant tree spreads her cool shady branches to protect her children with enormous love and care and bringing her children higher up as much as possible. We very much respect to all at your school for broaden-up your arms to protect and secure the future for these kids and more importantly keep-up their smiles on these innocent faces. In fact, any war in any country is capable of punishing innocent people regardless of their age, gender, race or the nationality. It is a monster who can destroy anything without any feeling. We share the warmth of love for all children in your care and spreading our loving kindness to all children, other victims affected by any war, as parents, community members at the end as human beings. St. John’s College refreshes our view as guardian angel looking after kids with an effort to open-up many avenues to keep their future brighten. But after hearing an immense love and kindness within the school environment to keep everybody happy and joyful we felt to express our heartfelt appreciation for all of your efforts on this mammoth task. May the school be success in every possible way! Janaki and Sunil
