The college was formed as the twin brother of Kalutara Balika Vidyalaya, the girl’s school. In 13 January 1941 the college officially started with 11 teachers and 56 students. After only six months, the college becomes a senior secondary school. At the beginning, Kalutara Vidyalaya at the Martin Bungalow was a mixed school. On 7 January, 1942, Kalutara Balika was established in Clammily House by M
r. Kularatne, so Kalutara Vidyalaya became a boy’s school. The first chapter of Kalutara Vidyalaya ended in 18 March 1942, when the Royal Air Force took the school for their use during World War II. After a short break, Kalutara Vidyalaya was restarted at Kalutara Balika Vidyalaya. Sir Cyril De Zoysa noticed that it is hard to develop two schools and handed over his Brookline House to the Kalutara Balika Vidyalaya. In April 1946, the college began free education and handover to the government. In 1998 the college became a National School. Today the school has about 3,500 students and more than 120 teachers
