St. Bernard’s offers able young boys of diverse backgrounds an exceptionally thorough, rigorous, and enjoyable introduction to learning and community life.  We wish to inspire boys to value hard work and fair play, to develop confidence, consideration for others, and a sense of citizenship, and to have fun while doing these things.

It is important both to challenge boys and to show them great affection.

Boys

A good heart is as valuable as a well-stocked, well-trained head.

Community

The glory of this school will always be the people inside it.
