Ananda and Nalanda are two premier schools synonymous with tremendous achievements rendering yeoman service to mother Sri Lanka. Our two schools enjoy a unique bond between themselves for decades. This brotherly bond stemming from the fact that Nalanda College being a direct off shoot from Ananda College has prospered the development of the two schools as no other school in the country has managed

Nalanda College, had humble beginnings as a wing of Ananda College situated in close proximity, housing a few primary classes. The classes grew and a new school by the name of Nalanda, a fine complement to Ananda was registered in 1925. Ever since, Ananda and Nalanda have been beacons of perfection showing the way to the rest of the country to follow.

Ananda and Nalanda have scaled great heights in all imaginable fields shining in the Sri Lankan educational sphere. Their alumni have performed mesmerizing feats from bringing freedom to the country from a war that spanned three decades with enviable political and military leadership, gained world renowned victories in cricket and other sports, achieved excellence in academics and entrepreneurship along with other great accomplishments too many to mention.

Year to year we witness the traditional Battle of the Maroons which, is played in a brotherly rivalry that has produced many a fine cricketer to the nation from both Ananda and Nalanda. It is one of the finest examples of the benefits that the two schools can derive by joining forces to work together towards common goals.

In this context, a concept of an Ananda Nalanda Alumni Brotherhood Network was mooted to create a more tightly knit community, consolidating the strengths of both schools with a vision to take up challenges and goals, common to Alumni of the two schools. It is envisioned that the Ananda Nalanda Brotherhood Network will grow in to a force to be reckoned with, in the circles of school alumni associations in the Island.
