The Double Blue Trust 

Dear Old Boys and Friends of Wesley College Colombo,

We write to advise you of an initiative being taken to enable Wesley College Colombo, stand among the top ranking boys’ schools in Colombo. It follows suggestions and active encouragement from many Old Boys, especially those resident in Australia. The initiative is completely apolitical and is intended solely to assist the Alma Mater. There is no intention to compete with any other body associated with Wesley; this activity will be complementary to theirs.

As Wesley is a non-fee levying school it is difficult to maintain desirable standards academically, in sports and in building maintenance. The birth of the “Double Blue Trust” follows a discussion at the Galle Face Hotel on 21st May 2006, which was hosted by William Deutrom. The others present at that meeting were M.A.P. Fernando (Principal),  Lalith Wijesinghe, Afghar Mohideen, Mahendra Dissanayake, Richard Ebell and David Hills.
