St David’s Marist Inanda
Welcome

St David's is about building the human fabric of our society and preparing young men to lead with courage wherever their adult lives take them.

St David’s Marist Inanda is a Johannesburg boys' school in which all members of the school family recognise the special Catholic ethos of the school and join in upholding the Christian teachings of the Gospel within a Catholic Marist tradition of: Humility, Simplicity and Modesty.

Welcome to St David's Marist Inanda

St David’s Marist Inanda is many things.

We are a Catholic boys' school located in Johannesburg, one where every member of our school family upholds the Christian teachings of the Gospel.

We are a Marist school, founded on the Catholic Marist values of humility, simplicity and modesty. We are guided by the example of St Marcellin Champagnat, who founded the Marist Brothers with the aim of educating young people, in particular those from impoverished backgrounds.

Self-development

As a school, St David’s places great emphasis on the personal development of our boys into well-rounded, confident young men who are well equipped to make their mark on the world. In providing our boys with the opportunities to develop their own passions and interests, and inspiring them to pursue them, there is no greater measure of success than seeing them grow into their best selves. The values based education received at St David’s, with an emphasis of service and impact, prepares and expects our boys to be leaders with compassion, driven to create a positive change in the world.
