S. Thomas' Preparatory School

S. Thomas' Preparatory School is a private Anglican, multi-ethnic, primary and secondary day school for boys ages 5 to 16, located in Kollupitiya in the Colombo District of the Western Province of Sri Lanka, founded as a branch preparatory school of S. Thomas' College, Mount Lavinia
The school was founded on 17 May 1938. It is governed by the Board of Governors of S. Thomas' College of the Church of Ceylon. The school is amongst the elite schools of Sri Lanka and is affiliated with the three other Thomian schools and colleges administered by the Church of Ceylon.
==History==
The school was founded in 1938 by the late William Thomas Keble M. A. (Oxon), the school's first headmaster, whilst Sri Lanka was under British colonial rule. The school was the first preparatory school to be established in Sri Lanka based on the English primary School model. Keble was an eminent British scholar, author and educationalist, an alumnus of Keble College Oxford, which is named after his maternal granduncle John Keble. He was the author of several books, including the ''Ceylon Beaten Track'' , a History of S. Thomas' College, and a novel on Sigiriya. He arrived in Ceylon (the name for Sri Lanka during the British colonial governance) in 1928 to join the staff of S. Thomas' College, Mt. Lavinia, during the tenure of warden Kenneth McPherson.
The institution, which commenced with a student population of 95 boys and a staff of seven teachers, currently has a student population in excess of 900 and over 80 staff members. Initially, the school only accepted students between the ages of 5 and 11, as its founding fathers sought to remedy a conceptual void in the educational system by placing a new emphasis on the requirements and aspirations of younger children to be educated and to be allowed to express their creative talents and faculties unfettered and unhampered by older and more mature students. Nevertheless, over the years the school began accepting and educating older students.
