[edit]In respect to your queries regarding Bandaranayake College, Gampaha I suggest you check out the WikiProject Schools article guidelines, which describe how the content of school articles should be organized. In particular the guidelines on other sections, which states amongst other things, "Do not include a list of every single club - all schools have clubs and listing them does not add to the basic description of the school that is needed for an encyclopedia." If a particular club or society is notable then it needs to include independent reliable secondary references (i.e. not the school's website or social media website). The same applies to sports teams, in that you need to establish what is notable about that school's sports team not that they simply have a team in that sport. Remember that Wikipedia is not a directory, a depository of news links, a host of primary source material, or a place for promotional material or advertising. Wikipedia is not an alternative for a school's website or a directory for the school and should only contain material of encyclopaedic interest.
The Sinhalese Wikipedia is different from the English Wikipedia in that the English Wikipedia requires a higher threshold of material contained within it. The guidelines for notability and information for inclusion are a lot more stricter.
