The inaugural ‘84 Science Exhibition organized by the Science Section of Gampaha Bandaranayake College marked a significant milestone as the first-ever science exhibition held within the Gampaha Education Department. Under the leadership of Principal Premasena Udugampola, the 1984 Science Exhibition successfully showcased the students' skills and talents, introducing the culture of science exhibitions to the Gampaha Education Department's jurisdiction. This visionary step by Gampaha Bandaranayake College bore fruit five years ago with the creation of the monumental X-ban '18 Education, Science, and Technology Trade Exhibition. Transforming the Information Age into a playground, overcoming challenges and obstacles, it strides towards the future world with a captivating style. After the 1984 Science Exhibition, the organization of "X-ban 2018" has further strengthened the educational journey of the college, which is celebrating its centennial anniversary, spreading a fragrance of blooming flowers during this springtime. The statement made by the Minister of Education Mr.Lalith Athulath Mudali after observing the X-ban 1993 Exhibition was highly insightful: "Nothing should be banned within 'X-ban,' rather everything in it must be seen." This bold statement reflects the comprehensive representation of educational, scientific, technological, and commercial sectors presented in the "X-BAN" exhibition since the 1984 Science Exhibition. These were creatively showcased, relevant to the contemporary global and societal context.

There is no doubt that the history of Sri Lankan schools will be changed this year as x ban 2024. The proud and beautiful exploration of the path with a meaningful mission, this time you can also see the future leaders who have not been seen with a new harmony through the X Ban educational and trade exhibition.

In terms of education as well as extra-curricular and co-curricular activities, Bandaranayake College is at the top in the history of Sri Lankan schools. By renewing the skills of Nayakenz, a new experience will be brought to the new generation. So Come and Enjoy!

I am honored to lead the X Ban 2024 exhibition, held in celebration of our school's 106th anniversary. This event marks a significant moment when the dreams of our entire school community come to life. The exhibition showcases the incredible talents and dedication of the Nayakenz, highlighting 106 years of our school's legacy to all of Sri Lanka.
