Following is a article written by Denzil Jayasinghe
We all have extraordinary people who shape our lives. 1st was my beloved father; I could write a book about him instead of a few short stories. Everything I do in life; I attribute to him. This is not to downplay the role my mother played in my character building.
2nd was a Christian Brother, beloved Bro. Ignatius, who was my carer when I was twelve years old, in the Christian brothers’ formative school. He was the best teacher one could ever have for an early adolescent. This is that story. -
Tribute to Brother Ignatius: The best teacher for his students, the dream teacher for everyone else
Reverend Brother Ignatius Warnakula, one of our most beloved former principals, turned 82 on the first day of this month. Throughout his life, he carried out the vision of the Great Saint John Baptist de La Salle which is to give every child a good education and care. He is also the most senior living Reverend Brother in Sri Lanka.
Brother Ignatius taught for 23 years at St. Anne's College. He has taught not only in our College but also in various other academic institutes. At one point in his extensive academic service, he himself taught all 8 subjects available at the time, which is unthinkable today.
