St. Joseph’s College has enjoyed phenomenal success in the recent times churning out champion teams in Cricket, Rugger, Soccer, Basketball and Swimming and have frequently hugged the headlines for their splendid performance in Sports. So much so that the school has produced a Champion Senior team in all Major Sports during the last 12 months. Their Academic success is not far away, as they continue to produce excellent results every year at the G.C.E. Ordinary level and Advanced level examinations. In fact the schools achievement at last year’s G.C.E. Advanced level is believed to be the best among the Islands Private Schools.

Amidst this backdrop the College has achieved yet another outstanding feat as their First Eleven Cricket Captain Jehan Fernandopulle who obtained three ‘A’s at last years’ Advanced Level examination. Jehan became only the second First Eleven Cricket Captain at St Joseph’s to achieve this feat. The first to achieve this feat was Dylan Fernandopulle, who is a cousin brother of Jehan. Dylan, captained St. Joseph’s First eleven in 2013/14 and also obtained three ‘A’ s in his Advanced level examination in 2014.

Incidentally, Jehan stepped down from the First Eleven captaincy for personal reasons after leading them during the third term season last year.
