St George's College, Harare

St George's College, is a private Catholic boys school (Form One to Upper Six) based in Harare, Zimbabwe. It is recognised as one of the best secondary schools in Africa.〔(top20highschools )〕 St. George's College was ranked as one of the Top 10 High Schools in Zimbabwe in 2014. The school motto, in Latin, is, '' Ex Fide Fiducia '' (''From faith comes confidence'').
It is arguably the oldest formal school established in Zimbabwe, with its Sister School Dominican Convent High School, laying its claim too. The school is a boys-only school, young adolescents enter – 'Salvete' and leave the college – 'Valete' as young men. In the 1990s, young women from the Dominican Convent were enrolled for the senior years (Lower Six and Upper Six) for Physics classes.
The school is located in a Harare suburb, Alexandra Park. The land was donated to the Jesuits. This led to the relocation of the school site from Bulawayo to Harare. This was the beginning of Saint George's College. On the same site, a preparatory primary school was established called Hartmann House. This site is next to the official Zimbabwe State House, and the Official President's House called Zimbabwe House, the home of the Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe.
St. Michael's Preparatory School (Grades 1–3) in Borrowdale often starts a pupil's journey to St. George's. Boys attend kindergarten there before joining Hartmann House, where they complete (Grades 4–7).
Saint George's College is a competitive School as an entrance examination has to be taken to enter Form One. Students coming from Hartmann House are not exempt from these exams. "A" grades at ordinary Level are necessary to enter the Lower Sixth Form. Those students who do not attain the necessary grades (those already at the school) are not allowed to return into the Sixth Form. Religious Education is compulsory throughout the six years.
The school has a family-oriented approach to academic and extracurricular studies. It has a collegiate (house) system which consists of four houses which are identified by colour – Hartmann House – Navy Blue; Barthelemy House – Dark Green; Gardner House – Red; Johanny House – Yellow. Every student belongs to a house, and there is a housemaster who is assisted by other members of Staff, the House Captain and House Prefects. The names of the Houses are obtained from Jesuit fathers who played an instrumental role in establishing and developing the school. The house system is also applied to Hartmann House Preparatory School. St. Michaels has a four house system but does not correspond to those of Hartmann House and St George's College. Its houses are St. Patrick, St. Joseph, St. Michael's and St. Francis.
==History==

The school was founded in 1896 by a French Jesuit, Father Marc Barthélemy, who opened the doors to a small corrugated-iron, two-windowed hut to admit the first six pupils to Bulawayo Boys' School, with its location in Bulawayo, the second largest city in Zimbabwe (then Southern Rhodesia). In 1898, a more permanent building was erected, and in December of that year, at the first prize-giving, the school assumed the title St. George's Boys' Public School. In 1899, Fr. Francis Johanny joined the staff and set up the Cadet Corp. Three years later, Fr. Thomas Gardner, the first English Jesuit arrived. In the same year, 1902, the first Rhodes Scholarships were awarded in Rhodesia, and they went to St. George's boys Albert Bisset and Woodford Gilbert. In 1912 the first permanent buildings were completed and opened by Earl Grey.
St. George's College moved to Salisbury (now Harare) in 1926. The architect of the buildings was Fr. Louis Leboeuf and the main builder was Br. John Conway, SJ. The Beit Hall was opened in 1935 by Sir Robert Stanley. In 1940 the library was built, then the 'Monastery' and later the 'Priory'. In 1955, the new Dormitory Wing and Laboratories were built, and later, in 1973, the permanent Chapel was erected.
In the years before Zimbabwe's independence in 1980, the country's government schools were segregated, but St George's, as a private school, was allowed a limited black intake, and was multiracial. It had admitted its first black pupil in 1963.〔
