Arts Section
The Arts section of Kingswood College Kandy comprises of nearly 200 gentlemen. The gentlemen of the Arts section have the choice of selecting a variety of subjects including within its range about 15 subjects. The Annual Arts Day is inaugurated by the Arts section which helps to showcase their talents in various fields and capacities. But unfortunately those opportunities have been missed by our gentlemen due to the pandemic situation.
We are pleased to state that the Art section’s Annual magazine named “Neth” has been revived after a few years of inactivation.
It is also very important to highlight that more than 15 gentlemen of the Arts Section who have obtained excellent results at the G. C. E Advanced Level examination 2020 have been selected for higher education.
The gentlemen who are gifted in dancing, singing, painting as well as theatrical arts have a very talented personality that will guide them to carry out the name of Mother Kingswood throughout the world.
It should also be noted that the Language section also makes a lot of effort to uplift their standards in their respective subjects. The Arts section achieved all island level ranks in public competitions and also in conducting the “Vhaag Prathibha” Debate competitions.
