It is with profound honour and deep humility that I extend my warmest greetings to all past pupils, well-wishers, and friends of our beloved alma mater.
Ferguson High School has, for generations, stood as a beacon of knowledge, discipline, and character in the heart of Ratnapura. The values instilled within its classrooms have shaped not only accomplished professionals, but upright citizens whose lives reflect integrity and purpose.
Our cherished school motto — “Live Pure : Speak True :
Right Wrong” — is not merely a guiding phrase;
it is a lifelong compass.
To Live Pure is to
uphold honour and dignity in all that we do.
To
Speak True is to stand firmly for honesty and
transparency.
To Right Wrong is to act with
courage and conviction in the face of injustice.
These principles have united us beyond time, distance, and circumstance.
The Colombo Branch of the Past Pupils’ Association exists not only to preserve the proud legacy of our school, but to strengthen the bonds of fellowship among past pupils while extending meaningful support to the present generation of students. As beneficiaries of the education and values imparted to us, we carry both gratitude and responsibility — gratitude for the foundation laid before us, and responsibility to give back with commitment and vision.
Together, let us continue to uplift our alma mater, nurture unity among our members, and inspire future generations to walk the path of excellence guided by our timeless motto.
May our association remain strong in purpose, steadfast in integrity, and united in service.
With sincere respect and warm regards,
Nilmini Elapata

Association – Colombo Branch
