Saint Mary of the Hills School

When we founded Saint Mary of the Hills School we were certain that a child´s path through Kindergarten, Primary and Secondary school is beyond a purely academic issue. It is, in fact, a starting point facing assertively a stronger challenge: to educate for life. That is our compromise and faith featured in the school motto: Wisdom and Service.

This is achieved by means of an intense academic education both in Spanish and English and through a permanent personal encounter: both balance the preparation for future studies so that students can discover their vocation and mission on a personal basis. Our main task is to acknowledge and encourage every pupil´s original way of being through all the different activities that take place at school.

While students grow in knowledge and values they prepare themselves for their insertion in a global changing world; assuming their own identity and idiosyncrasy accepting differences and finally facing unexpected situations which the 21 st century will expose them to.

We aim that every student entrusted to this community should be able to explore and develop their individual talents in a caring environment where academic excellence is pursued, should grow up to be a broad-minded adult sustaining values related to Christian faith and living so as to learn for life.

Wisdom is the capacity of finding the ultimate sense of man and life. The word Sapientia, Sapida Sciencia e.g. Fruitful Science. It is not a question of ¨possessing¨ acquired knowledge but of understanding that life has a valuable meaning, created, thought and cherished (loved) by The Lord so as to become part of his life. Through The Lord, happiness is granted.

Facing so many different changes in culture, unaware of finding the real sense of life, the school works on instilling religious formation that will touch each student´s heart so that they may choose that path on their way to an adult life having a sense of community. Solidarity is the other strong point of our motto.

St Mary of the Hills School works with the students to be at the service of others, using their talents to full capacity. Since the very beginning, our Institutional history / backround is full of examples where students, families and teachers have shown this special awareness for the need of others. BENEFICIO-Helping others.
