Dear esteemed Wesley College OBU UK members,

It is with great pleasure and excitement that I address you as the newly elected President of our OBU in the United Kingdom. First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Wesley College, Colombo, as we celebrate an incredible milestone of 150 years in education. This is a testament to the enduring legacy and profound impact our alma mater has had on countless lives throughout the years.

As we come together as old boys living miles away from our beloved Wesley College, we are united by a shared bond that transcends physical distance. Our cherished memories and experiences at Wesley College have woven a thread that keeps us connected and close to our hearts, no matter where we are in the world.

As the President of Wesley College OBU UK, I am dedicated to fostering a sense of camaraderie and solidarity among our members. Together, we will fly our college colours high and free in the United Kingdom, showcasing the spirit and values we instilled during our time at Wesley College, Colombo.

Our OBU UK is more than just an organisation; it is a community. It is a place where we can reminisce, share stories, and support one another. Together, we can create a sense of home away from home, providing a warm and welcoming space for all Wesleyites residing in the UK.

In the spirit of our 150th anniversary, I invite each one of you to join us in celebrating this momentous occasion. Let us honour Wesley College’s rich history and traditions by coming together in unity and friendship. We will organise various events and activities that capture the essence of our alma mater, ensuring that our Wesley spirit lives on through our collective efforts.

Whether you are a recent graduate or an alumni from decades ago, I encourage you to participate actively in our OBU UK. Your expertise, ideas, and contributions are invaluable to our community. Together, we can create a lasting impact on our members and future generations of Wesleyites.

I am truly humbled and honoured to serve as your President. Please feel free to contact me or any executive committee member with your ideas, suggestions, or concerns. Your input is crucial in shaping our vision and ensuring that Wesley College OBU UK continues to foster a strong and vibrant community.

Let us join hands, my fellow Wesleyites, and embark on this journey together. Our shared commitment and love for our alma mater will guide us as we fly the Wesley College colours high in the United Kingdom.
