St David’s Marist Inanda is a Johannesburg boys' school in which all members of the school family recognise the special Catholic ethos of the school and join in upholding the Christian teachings of the Gospel within a Catholic Marist tradition of: Humility, Simplicity and Modesty.

Welcome to St David's Marist Inanda

We are a Catholic boys' school located in Johannesburg, one where every member of our school family upholds the Christian teachings of the Gospel.

We are a Marist school, founded on the Catholic Marist values of humility, simplicity and modesty. We are guided by the example of St Marcellin Champagnat, who founded the Marist Brothers with the aim of educating young people, in particular those from impoverished backgrounds.
