The Chemistry Club of Royal College was established in 2001 as the ‘Chemistry Society’ by Mrs. Annoma Pothupitiya. The dream and mission was to uplift the standards of the student body of Royal College in the field of chemistry. This was the goal set by our first chairman, Mr. Sajith Pothupitiya, and the first secretary, Mr. Charith Mendis. Though there was a flame of interest and activity in the club during its early days, the passion began to fade as the years rolled by, to a point of inactivity in 2005. In 2007, Mr. Selvaranjan became the teacher in charge and ignited a spark of passion which caused a much needed boost. After another brief period of inactivity the club resumed activities in 2013 and continued to date.
