Welcome to our Homepage ! The time
has come to rally round.
“Joes 92” as we call ourselves, consists of old Josephians who
completed or would have completed their A/Levels at St. Joseph’s
College in the year 1992.
On the initiative of just a few, well over 50 members got
together for the first time since leaving school and came
together and walked together as
one batch, one group - Joes 92.
It was a moving moment for all of us who took part that day.
As
if to make up for the lost
time, the members heard the call and turned up in their numbers seemingly from the
woodwork, exceeding 100 for the first Annual General Meeting at the Bonjean Hall, on 18 August 2006. There were
cries of "Hel-lo Machan .." echoing in all nooks and crannies of
the hall.
The current Rector, Rev. Fr. Sylvester Ranasinghe graced the
occasion as the Chief Guest. The members were taken down memory
lane, via a short but nostalgic multimedia show (which we had
not dreamed of in 1992) of the good old school days. The guys
who were instrumental in getting “Joes 92” up and running were
appointed as the 1st Committee, with Sheahan Amarasinghe – the
live wire behind the scenes – being deservedly named as the
first President. From there onwards for Joes 92, it has been a
steady climb up the “distant mountains” and over the “wild waves
breaking near”, with a lots of activities and more members
joining us.
