Promoting … Respect, Hard Work, Excellence
Working together as a school community, the Board of Management, parents, staff and students aim to provide an environment which will allow our students to develop intellectually, physically, morally, socially and spiritually so that each student will be able to grow to fulfill his/her role in society.
Great emphasis is placed on respect, hard work and good behavior. These will assist students in reaching their potential and attaining personal achievements. Good homework and study practices will complement the learning that has taken place in the classroom. Involvement in any of the many extra-curricular activities offered will enhance the experience of the Marist.
We look forward to the opportunity to work with parents in moulding the lives of the young people who choose to enroll in St. Mary’s College.
Our Story: Since 1816
The Marist Fathers are part of a wider Marist Family of Brothers, Fathers, Laity and Sisters. Also known as the Society of Mary, they were founded in France in the early part of the nineteenth century.
The Founder of the Marist Fathers, Fr Jean-Claude Colin was reared in the atmosphere of the French Revolution in 1789 which was a time of persecution of the Church. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1816 and sent as curate to his brother, then parish priest of the country parish of Cerdon, some sixty miles northeast of Lyon.
Our Mission & Vision
St Mary’s College is a Catholic secondary school under the patronage of the Marist Fathers.
The college through its academic, pastoral and spiritual programmes strives to provide for the holistic development and welfare of each of the students in its care.
