(Speech delivered by Savitri de Alwis, Past President of the Golden Heartians' Club, at a recent ceremony to felicitate the former Principals and teachers of Sacred Heart Convent, Galle.)
-
Rev. Sr. Sandya Fernando Principal Sacred Heart Convent and Sr. Mihiri Perera, Deputy Principal, Chief Guest, Izzeth Jabeer, Guests of Honour— Dharma Gamanpila, Ratna Wimalasena and Kamani Gunawardene, distinguished guests and fellow Heartians.
What a privilege to see you all as we celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Golden Heartians' Club by the past pupils of that very noble school Sacred Heart Convent. This occasion is also specially convened to celebrate the lives of Sr. Adrian and Sr. Rosina our beloved Mentors and Principals on our tenth anniversary celebrations and I've been given the opportunity to speak on behalf of all Heartians
it is remarkable to think that some of us here went to school in the last century, the 20th century! And I was a school girl in the 1960s and that decade was just unforgettable. Galle was considered a sleepy town unlike the buzzing city it is now
