College history

Holy Cross College Payagala, formerly a branch of Holy Cross College Kalutara, was established on January 14, 2004, in a peaceful coastal village to serve the educational needs of the local community. The initiative, inspired by His Grace Rev. Dr. Oswald Gomis, began in the premises of Palapolwatta Church and grew steadily despite early challenges, including the devastating tsunami in December 2004.
