Our Heritage
A Legacy of 166 Years
Lawrence College was established in 1860 in memory of Brigadier General Sir Henry Montgomery Lawrence — Soldier, Statesman and Philanthropist — raised with a major contribution from his family to provide quality education to the sons of British and Indian soldiers serving in the subcontinent.
Today the college educates approximately 700 students across three schools — Junior, Preparatory and Senior — each with its own Headmaster and its own ground on the hillside.
