On 01 November 1886, a new Buddhist Scholastic Foundation was added to a minor, yet growing collection of Buddhist Learning Institutes in the schooling system of the then-Ceylon. During the past 133 years, Ananda College has embraced not only Buddhist broods but also youngsters from all communities in the island by divulging them on the nationalistic and ethical ideals of this realm along with the
positive western principles which were needed back then in order to rise up in the social order. Dating back 48 years, 1973 saw the establishment of the Broadcasting Unit of Ananda College. Throughout its existence for over 4 decades, this organization is considered to be the undeniable innovator in school based media and has proven that it has been accomplishing its duties and responsibilities by systematizing some of the foremost occasions that take place in the school calendar such as the Best Announcer Competition, Inter School Announcing Competition and Sandeshaya Awards. Our principal objective being to process a mass media culture in Sri Lanka with good comportment, the very first reason for the strength behind the success of this praiseworthy organization is the unity of all its members, splendidly directed by our Teachers In-charge and second being our weight on the three main principles: Discipline, Announcing and Organizing.
