Parent Experience

Community, involvement and what it's like to be a parent at this school

History

Asian International School was founded by Mr. W. P. Perera. He was approached by a group of businessmen to chair a proposed International School and named the institution Asian International School. AIS was totally his creation and he undertook the enormous financial burden of building such an Institution. He had begun life as a Tea Planter and, having worked under British employers, was well versed in British methods of organization. His name is remembered by many students as the founder whose vision established AIS.
