Happy Founders Day and 149th Anniversary to our beloved Alma mater, Bishop’s College 😓

𝓗𝓪𝓹𝓹𝔂 149𝓽𝓱 𝓐𝓷𝓷𝓲𝓿𝓮𝓻𝓼𝓪𝓻𝔂 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓕𝓸𝓾𝓷𝓭𝓮𝓻𝓼' 𝓓𝓪𝔂 to Bishop's College and to all Bishopians! The trailblazing, visionary foresight, and determination of the founders to establish women’s education in Ceylon back in 1857 paved the way for Bishop's College to produce generations of outstanding Bishopians skillfully blended with the rich Christian traditions and Sri Lankan heritage to serve the World at large guided by the motto; “Non Sibi Sed Omnibus”– Not for Self but for All.
Here's wishing God's blessings and strength for your mission to provide an accountable, inclusive, and diverse learning environment for all Bishopians, that pursues academic excellence, spiritual growth, personal and sporting prowess, and most of all, one that instills values of truth, loyalty, and justice to advance social consciousness and responsibility toward all God’s creation. Also wishing success for the preparations of the 150th Anniversary under the theme “Towards 150 - Blessed & Benevolent!’ and to rally all Bishopians from around the World!
Let the BC Spirit be reignited!
