  • Happy Feast Day of St. John Baptist de La Salle!

    Today, we celebrate the life and legacy of St. John Baptist de La Salle, the patron saint of teachers and the founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. As a proud De La Salle institute, St. Anne's College is honored to be at the forefront of preserving, protecting, and practicing the inspiring values that St. John Baptist de La Salle championed.

    St. John Baptist de La Salle devoted his life to the pursuit of education and the betterment of society through teaching. Born in 1651 in France, he revolutionized the educational landscape of his time by establishing a unique system of schooling that was accessible to all, regardless of their social background. He believed that education had the power to transform lives and bring about positive change in the world.

    With higher commitment and boundless compassion, St. John Baptist de La Salle founded the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, a religious congregation dedicated to the mission of providing quality education rooted in faith and service. Through his vision, he established a network of schools that focused on the holistic development of students, nurturing their minds, hearts, and spirits.

    For over a century, St. Anne's College has proudly carried forward the torch of St. John Baptist de La Salle's educational philosophy. We strive to create an inclusive and nurturing environment where each student is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. We are guided by the core principles of faith, community, and fostering a spirit of compassion, integrity, and lifelong learning.

    On this special occasion, let us remember the profound impact St. John Baptist de La Salle has had on the field of education and also directly upon our lives. As we honor St. John Baptist de La Salle today, let us express our gratitude to all the dedicated educators who tirelessly strive to make a difference in the lives of their students. Together, let us renew our commitment to promoting education as a transformative force and carry forward the torch of St. John Baptist de La Salle's legacy.

  • Turn your youth into a good cause, be a Lasallian volunteer.

    Do you like to turn your youth into a cause that makes a positive difference in the community and have a pleasant memory reflecting that any day of your life thereafter? If so, this invitation from the De La Salle Brothers to volunteerism is a perfect opportunity for you.

    Volunteerism is a noble conduct of offering your time and labor for community service with the selfless intention of helping people. This program primarily aimed at students from La Sallian institutes who have just completed the A Level exam which began at the end of January this year.

    The volunteer program mainly focuses on academics by educating children. What more treasure could you pass on than to help little minds in their studies? Since most of you will arrive at this right after your exams, this program is ideal for you.

    In addition to being able to serve your community, you will also have the opportunity to live alongside the Reverend Brothers for the entire duration and get to know and learn from them. At your discretion, you can enroll in 3-month or 6-month duration. During this period you will be provided with accommodation although you may also choose to travel daily.

    In recognition of your service and commitment to helping others, all candidates who successfully complete their volunteer program will receive a 'Certificate for Volunteerism'.
