Genesis

It began under the open sky of Ampara. 45 students. 3 teachers.
No walls, no roof—only a vision that would outlast them all.

Foundation

The "Hall of Wisdom" rose from the earth. A sanctuary built to withstand the tests of time, signaling that D.S. Senanayake College was here to stay.

The Golden Era

Glory

The 90s saw the rise of the Lions. National School status achieved. Provincial championships won. The Black and Gold became a symbol of excellence.
