Selection of photos from the match

An impressive all-round performance helped St Joseph's College win their 37th 'Battle of the Saints' Limited-over encounter against St. Peter's by 73 runs at P. Sara Stadium on Saturday 12 March. Electing to bat first, the Josephians amassed a formidable 230 for the loss of nine wickets thanks to two half tons by Chathuranga Kumara (64) and Roscoe Thattil (60) which proved beyond the reach of the Petes who were bowled out for 157.

A/V Auditorium, SJC

The 23rd Day of March 2009 was a memorable day for the Old Josephians of the 92 batch, as they officially handed over the newly renovated gleaming auditorium to the College. Rev. Fr. Stanley Abeysekera, who was the Rector of the College during period of 92 batch ceremonially declared open the Auditorium cum Conference hall jointly with the present Rector Rev Fr. Sylvester Ranasinghe, in the presence of other Rev Fr.’s, Sisters, teachers, students and members of the batch of 92.

The new auditorium is a brain child of Rev. Fr. Sylvester Ranasinghe, who saw the need to offer modern conference facilities to the students in an interactive environment. It is equipped with audio, visual and multimedia facilities to assist students to participate in debates and discussions in a very user friendly and encouraging setting. The auditorium used to be the former science lab situated near the back entrance of the Bonjean Hall prior to refurbishing. Rev Fr Sylvester Ranasinghe blessed the auditorium soon after the opening, and speaking on the occasion said that this will be used both for conferences as well as for lectures. He highlighted that the seating arrangements are set in a manner conducive for free flow of ideas suitable for classroom activities as well as for conferences. He thanked the 92 batch for their tireless efforts and stressed that this project epitomizes the appreciation that old boys have for their school. He further emphasised and appreciated that the 92 batch personally got involved in all aspects of the project without outsourcing it to a contractor. The members of the batch of 92 said that they hope that this new auditorium will serve as a unique facility to enhance the academic aspirations of all students for many more years to come.

Here are some photos of the fruits of our labour. Thank you so much, from the bottom of our hearts, to all those who do not wish to be named, for the hard work and excellent work done.
