Welcome to Holy Cross College, Gampaha, web site. Here at Holy Cross, we strive to provide experiential learning to illumine the darkness of ignorance.

We make sure that our students are rooted in the values of Catholic tradition and, yet maintain a global outlook.

From The Vice Principal

Education is the back bone of one’s life. It is the steering wheel with which we can motivate the children, form their thinking pattern and transform them for a higher level of life. To motivate them to reach these goals we need to arouse their curiosity to learn. When they are curious they will find out lots of interesting things to do.

Through launching the website of the College, students will find many more opportunities to cope with the pressure of this world and foster their Christian and cultural values and contribute their best to enrich the society.
