‘Mahinda Nite 2012’ annual dinner dance was held on Saturday the 10th November 2012 at Brentford lock Holiday-Inn. Music was provided by The Islanders UK.
The “Mahinda Nite” dinner dance is the major fund raising activity and the funds raised in the UK are channelled to provide support to Mahinda College in both the academic and recreational areas. The Association of old Mahindians in the UK (AOMUK) has in recent years donated a large number of laboratory equipment and computers to be used by the students. The Association also financially supported the young Mahindians in the Under 19 National Cricket Team and the coach. Currently, the AOMUK is providing scholarships to needy students at Advance Level classes and may continue if they are to enter the university. The AOMUK has recently communicated with the new Principal on the needs and the priorities of the College and organising the delivery of CCTV cameras and a security system for the safety of the College and students.
