St. Louis School is an international school that provides a high-quality education within a friendly, secure, and purposeful environment, in which we foster creativity, independence of thought and an enduring love of learning.

Our ambitious vision is to be a model of excellence in educating students for success in the world. At St Louis we will do our utmost to ensure that our students make academic progress and become confident about their own learning processes by understanding what does and does not work for them as learners. They will become internationally minded citizens of the world, celebrating and responding to diverse cultures and preparing them for other schools and universities throughout the world.
