Roots That Hold Dharmaraja Founders Day 26
About
https://www.facebook.com/events/1861559617864207 (Official Event Page)Calling all Rajans in Melbourne!
📣
Every Old Rajan who has stood on that hilltop overlooking the Kandy Lake knows the feeling. It carries the weight of what a handful of extraordinary men dared to believe in 1887 — when the odds were firmly against them.
From a modest cadjan shed with just 12 students grew an institution that shaped our lives, our values, and our very identity.
This year, we gather not simply to observe a tradition, but to honour a debt of gratitude — to Colonel Henry Steel Olcott, Sir D.B. Jayatilaka, and every visionary who made Dharmaraja College possible.
The Dharmaraja College Old Boys Union – Melbourne warmly invites you, your family, and fellow alumni to our traditional Alms Giving Ceremony, held in memory of our great founders.
