"Kindness is a mark of faith, and whoever is not kind has no faith." These were the words of Prophet Muhammad, whose birth we celebrate today. At St. Anne's College, we embrace diversity and unity, and we extend our warm wishes to all our Muslim brothers and to all who embody the values of peace, love, and compassion shared by Prophet Muhammad. Milad-un-Nabi Mubarak!

Knowledge brings peace and strength. On this Esala Day, Lord Buddha shared his wisdom with five ascetics, unveiling the submerged reality of the world. May we harness the true power of knowledge for the betterment of our lives and those around us. Wishing you a blessed Esala.

Today, as we observe Poson Poya Day, we reflect upon a significant event that transpired two millennia ago. Arahat Mihindu, with his arrival on our homeland, bestowed upon our people a profound path of enlightenment and spiritual awakening.
Let us also recall the compassionate act of Arahat Mihindu when he arrived at Mihinthalagala and liberated the life of an innocent deer. This serves a profound reminder that our love and care should extend beyond mankind to encompass animals and the natural world that surrounds us.
Like those who sought guidance in Arahat Mihindu, let us each find the guidance we need to navigate our lives towards enlightenment. Here at St. Anne's College, where faith and spirituality hold a significant place, we extend warm wishes to everyone for a blissful Poson Poya Day.
