TESTIMONIALS
Shared Experience
Duffy Family
“My children are the third generation to attend this school, starting with my aunt in 1954 as a founding Grade 1 pupil. I attended the College Junior Schools in the mid-1970s and returned to the High School from 1980 to 1984. De La Salle Holy Cross College is perfect and for our children they have had wonderful experiences there.”
Mrs Susan Kimathi
“If you’re looking for a school that cares for the holistic development of your child; reinforces and leverages a sense of community; helps your child to nurture faith in God; places child at the centre of decision making, De La Salle Holy Cross College is that school!”
