Motto “Education is Light”
St Catherine’s College firmly believes that learning begins by giving all children a sense of who they are and where they belong in the world. The school aims to encourage respect for other people’s viewpoints and ways of life, allowing children to develop the ability to understand right and wrong and to work out appropriate ways of handling different situations.
This means that the school not only seeks to inspire children to the highest academic achievement but also nurtures their personal, social, moral, spiritual and cultural development.
As well as giving children a broad-based and full curriculum, therefore, It ensures that they have the chance to enjoy a wide range of activities and experiences that will enhance their learning and meet their broader needs
The college enrolls post-primary students currently covering East African countries including the Democratic Republic of Congo and Southern Sudan.
