Karate

Karate was introduced to the students of S. Thomas’ Preparatory School in 2015, under the guidance of our former Headmaster Rev. Dushantha Rodrigo. At the time of its commencement, around 50 enthusiastic students enrolled in the sport.

At present, nearly all the students of Grade 2 are engaged in Karate. Practices for them take place once a week for about 30-45 minutes. Added to that, 30 other students are also enrolled, under the coaching of Mr. Clint Williams who has been our ‘sensei’ from the time of its inception.
