St. Peters College Colombo Details
St. Peter's College is a boys-only primary to secondary school in the Bambalapitiya zone of Colombo, Sri Lanka, founded in 1922.In 1919, when World War I had just finished and people all over the world took to the task of peace, Very Rev. Fr. M. J. Le Goc, the Rector of St. Joseph's College, Colombo had a vision of a College in the southern suburbs of Colombo. Since the classrooms at St. Joseph's were full and couldn't admit any more students, a new school was the answer to this problem which will educate those who couldn't be admitted to St. Joseph's due to the lack of accommodation. While he was traveling one day on his famous motor bicycle with this idea in mind, Fr. Le Goc spotted a block of cinnamon land in Bambalapitiya which belonged to Mr. E. C. de Fonseka. The most important date in the history of the college is April 8th, 1927. The College established its own identity that day. The Wellawatte branch of St. Joseph 's College Colombo was registered as a separate Secondary school by Gazette notification No: 7575 of 2 nd April 1927 with the name St. Peter's College, Wellawatte. The celebrations in connection with the re-naming of the College had been held on Wednesday, 29th June with the feast of St. Peter with a high Mass sung by Very. Rev. Fr. M. J. Le Goc assisted by Rev. Fr. Morel and Theobald Silva. After Mass, a colorful ceremony had taken place on the lawn in front of the college. The College Flag with the colors Blue, White and Gold were blessed by Rev. Fr. Le Goc and hoisted.
