About School

In 1922 the first Bishop of Galle acquired a vast area of land on the outskirts of Ratnapura town and sought help to establish an institution to help the sick and needy. Answering his call, four foreign nuns arrived and ‘The Sisters of Charity’ was formed. Extracts taken from the diaries of the nuns revealed the difficulties they encountered during this most arduous time prior to the building of the Convent.
Past Pupils Association

The Colombo Branch of the Past Pupils Association of the Convent of the Child Jesus, Ratnapura, was inaugurated on the 02nd of November 1996 by the late Sr. Margaret Mary at the Provincialate 15, Don Carolis Rd., Colombo 05. Perhaps she envisaged that a PPA in Colombo would be able to gather more members and thus be able to establish stronger ties with the school which would result in strengthening it’s already laid foundation.
