THE ST. XAVIER’S HIGH SCHOOL PARENT TEACHER ASSOCIATION

History

In November 1949 a group of parents met in the School Hall to consider the possibility of running a canteen for the children – to provide clean and wholesome food prepared under hygienic conditions and sold at reasonable rates

On 4th May 1950, a red-letter day in the history of St. Xavier’s High School, for on that day was born the Student Parent Association of St. Xavier’s, known today as St. Xavier’s High School Parent Teacher Association. Soon it broadened its aims to arrange for greater social contact between parents, staff and students
