How Little Flower Convent bloomed to Kuda Kusum BMV

Little Flower Convent, Bandarawela, began as a private school in 1927 with just seven students and five teachers under Rev. Mother Mary Casilda who was the first Principal. It functioned as a private mixed school and was upgraded to a higher secondary school in 1956. The School was taken over by Government in the year 1971 and was declared a grade 2 Secondary School in 1978. Thereafter, in 1979 it was placed under group C and classified as a Maha Vidyalaya and made a National School. The School which commenced with just seven students, presently has over two thousand students.

Under guidance of dedicated Principals and Teachers, the students of the School have excelled in their studies and also outshined in band competitions, drama, English days etc.

The Little Flower Convent, Bandarawela, is presently known as Kuda Kusum Balika Maha Vidyalaya and is one of the leading girls’ schools, not only in Bandarawela but in the whole of Uva Province. It’s motto “Diriyawadaw Daruwani Diriyawadaw” has given immense inspiration to the past and present students. The Old Girls Association together with the past students of the school have organised a felicitation ceremonyon the 17th of September 2016 for one hundred past and retired Principals & Teachers who served the School with love & devotion. The past students will also join in a “Back to School” event on this day from 9.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. to bring back the memories of school days & times. There will be many activities for Principals and Teachers as well.

All past pupils of this great School, please join us on this day.
