The Foundation

Nakano College, a Japanese-founded institution, traces its origins to the vision of High Priest Ven. Shushyo Koyso Thera and Ven. Anuradha Nakano Theri. Under the directorship of Ven. Kuburugamuwa Soratha Thero, the college began its journey as a co-educational, Englishmedium institute. The establishment of Nakano Pre-School on September 6, 2005, marked the first step in providing quality education to the community.
