*“He is Risen!*

On this blessed Easter, we rejoice in the glorious resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ — a triumph of life over death, of hope over despair, and of light over darkness.

May the risen Christ renew our hearts with faith, strengthen us with His grace, and guide us to walk in unity, compassion, and purpose.

As Peterites, may we continue to uphold these values in our lives and communities, inspired by the promise of new life that Easter brings.

The Old Boys’ Union of St. Peter’s College wishes you and your loved ones a truly _Blessed and Peaceful Easter.”_

A Legend Returns: Rohan Buultjens to Grace the 92nd Battle of the Saints! 🏏

We are thrilled to share that the legendary Peterite cricketing icon, Rohan Buultjens, will be the Chief Guest at the upcoming 92nd Battle of the Saints, taking place from March 19th to 21st, 2026, at the SSC Grounds.

For those of us who grew up in the late 70s and early 80s, Rohan’s name was synonymous with cricketing excellence. From his historic, unbeaten twin-centuries in the 1979 "Joe-Pete" Big Match—a record that still stands—to being named the Sunday Observer Schoolboy Cricketer of the Year in 1981, his career is the stuff of legend.

A Look Back at a Remarkable Journey:

Peterite Pride: Captained the 1980 First XI team, leading them to become All Island Schools Cricket Champions.

Stylistic Mastery: Renowned as a stylish left-hand batsman with cover drives that drew comparisons to the great David Gower.

National & International Stage: Represented Sri Lanka at the Under-20 level against India and toured Pakistan with the Under-23s.

Beyond the Pitch: Following a stellar domestic career with the Nondescripts Cricket Club (NCC) and stints in the English and Australian leagues, Rohan achieved great success in the corporate world, serving as the Chief Technology and Digital Officer at Hatton National Bank.

Join us in celebrating a true gentleman of the game and a proud son of St. Peter’s. Let’s make the 92nd Battle of the Saints one to remember!
