Gateway College, Negombo will commence sessions from January 2007. The purpose built premises situated in a land that stretches from the Colombo-Negombo main road to the lagoon will initially cater to Foundation and Primary School only. The serene environment that provides a scenic view of the lagoon with spacious play areas and modern facilities provides the ideal setting for quality teaching and learning for children from 2 ½ to 11+ years of age. Registrations at the new school will commence from mid November at the new premises for Play Group, Nursery, Kindergarten and Years 1 to 6.
