Welcome to the QUADRANGLE
The word ‘Quadrangle’ may mean an empty space or a design with four points and six lines to some. But for those who spent some parts of their lives in a Quadrangle and institution, this would mean plenty of memories. It was a place to meet and to share stories amongst friends. Of course in between a place to get reprimanded in public for all misdeeds. Nevertheless, those who grew up Quandrangles, like you and me, and all those who come from Quadranguler schools would place great value and respect not only to the institution but also to those who guided them to become who they are today. Some friendships built at Qadrangles last for a lifetime with fond memories lingering in our minds.
We moved on, like the rest of the world but hardly have we forgotten those values inculcated and the learnings we’ve had. These values help us in our endeavours to be strong, be successful, and most importantly to be human beings in this demanding, ruthless yet funny World. Furthermore, our world is shrinking with the digital world bringing us closer each second.
Here we are opening a new chapter of our story, the learnings we’ve had at Quadrangles and where they have led us, reaching out to one big community of Sri Lankans in this Island Paradise and across the world. Stories begin mostly from a Quadrangle be it at Kotahena, Maradana, Bambalapitiya or Katugastota and cover the local corporate world, sports, leisure, tourism, fashion, food and entertainment. We have on stage senior writers in Sri Lanka and guest writers form Australia, Canada and United Kingdom along with our very own up and coming writers, content generators and photographers sharing their stories. We may add more stories and cover more Quandrangles as we go along. We hop you will enjoy these stories, cherish them and of course share them with your network of friends and families.
We cannot go on this journey without you. This your platform both here an on print to share the stories. You are at the centre of everything we do. Do send us your vies, your own stories and pictures. We will try to feature in the best interest of the community at large. If you want to rave or rant about a story, feel free to go ahead. For that you can reach us either via social media, web or in person.
