Vembadi Girls’ High School summons a long chronicle with perceptible accomplishment among the schools in the Northern Province. It boasts a long history with rich grandeur. Methodist Missionaries, who arrived from England, initiated their service here to broaden the education by establishing an English School. This English School, called as The Weslyan Central School, was situated at the present Vembadi Premises. Later they felt the need to educate the girls in the Jaffna society. So they decided to start a school for girls. So The Boys English School (Present Central College) was shifted to the adjoining premises. When we look back at the precedent history, there were several past principals who rendered their service to the school intensely .Our first principal was Mrs. Peter Percival in the year 1837. The first National Principal was Ms.Mabel Thambiah. This school is endowed with the advantageous environment to the Jaffna Tamil women to come out from their cocoon life in the past. Every year it fabricates the cream of the crop in the society and many students cross the threshold of the university to master in the education in different fields. It is also considered to be one of the leading girls’ schools in Jaffna. The principal, teachers and students strive hard to get the eminence of the school. It guarantees with great pledge of many sky-scraping level people in Sri Lanka and all over the world. In the modern world, our students are spread everywhere in various designations. The 5S concepts have been introduced in our school. This 5S project is destined for the primary and the intermediate classes to teach Maths and Science effectively. A great promise is assured to all the girls to get the education to reach the utmost position in the society. Our school always secures the first place in its first-rate discipline, manners and education.
