Unveiling of OBU Crest and Photographs of former Secretaries πŸ«πŸ“Έ

As the OBU commences its 47th year in existence, the Executive Committee felt that it was time to document and preserve the legacy of the OBU.

The first step in this process was to unveil its own Crest, based on but different to the Prep School Crest, and the photographs of all the Secretaries who had served the Union in the J. S. L. Fernando Memorial Room in The Fortrose, which is used for the administrative activities of the OBU.

This was done at a simple ceremony immediately after the 44th Annual General Meeting of the OBU at and former Secretaries of the OBU Chrishmal Warnasuriya, Kishan De Silva, Imran Hassan and Raj Rasiah took part in the ceremony.

We call on all Members of the OBU to share any records they may have, be it minutes of meetings, photographs, souvenirs or tickets to an OBU event with the OBU to create an archive of the work of the Union.
