Our two marimba bands are very popular and are invited to attend social events as well as competitions in Gauteng. Our students enter the Arts Festival, Olympiads and Young Scientists Expo.

St Thomas Aquinas School students work toward a mission of building a community that cares enough to reach out to the poor, helping to build a better world for others. Community service is an important part of our school life. We try to be the hands of Jesus touching the world with love today. Our students experience a tremendous payback of joy and fulfillment that comes from reaching out with love and helping others in need.
