The Welcoming Ceremony for the new Grade 01 students of 2025 took place on January 30th, 2025, at the school main hall. The event began with a heartfelt prayer service led by Rev. Fr. Milroy Fonseka, Procurator General and Manager of Catholic Private Schools (CP), who blessed both the children and their parents.

Following the prayer service, our Principal, Rev. Sr. Sudarika Fernando, addressed the gathering of students and parents, offering words of encouragement and support for the exciting journey ahead. The ceremony then continued with a lively and entertaining variety program, featuring song and dance performances.

To further enrich the experience, a motivational session was held for all parents, conducted by Senior Counselor and Psychotherapist Dr. Chaminda Weerasiriwardana. The session provided valuable insights and guidance for parents as they support their children on their educational journey.

It was a day filled with joy, celebration, and inspiration, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our Grade 01 students as they join the Shepherdian Family.
