Message From The Headmaster

Welcome to St. Matthew's

It is a delight to welcome you to St. Matthew’s Secondary School and to our website.  We at    St. Matthew's believe that we have created a most special school. Blessed with inquisitive and thoughtful students, outstanding and caring teachers, and helpfully involved parents, the school offers a unique blend of seemingly contradictory attributes that make it special in so many ways.

We are a Form I – VI secondary school - having students of about 2500 - yet on a spacious campus of some 20 acres. Traditional in its values and high expectations, we also possess wonderfully creative departments, teaching lessons/subjects incorporating both competence and content based, as well as cutting edge methodologies. As an integral part of the St. Matthew’s, the school stresses moral and spiritual growth while welcoming and celebrating students of all faiths. 

Challenging academics always include a network of support and caring. As the ancient Greeks recognized thousands of years ago, “To educate the mind without also fostering character was to fall short”. Thus, at St. Matthew's we strive to develop not only critical thinkers, but also persons of integrity; we hope for not only successful and happy students, but also ones full of kindness and concern for the well being of others.

Our school mission captures best this array of characteristics formed into a cohesive whole:  “Championing for Discipline and quality Education”.  I invite you to peruse our website so you can begin to get a feel for how we make these special attributes come alive at St. Matthew's.
