The beginning
Our heritage
Seventy-two students. One calling.
St. Anthony's Secondary School — originally St. Anthony's Co-education Secondary School, Ilorin — was founded on 1st February 1968 by the Catholic Diocese of Ilorin with only 36 boys and 36 girls on roll.
Its founders set out to help young women and men see the goodness of God through standard, quality Christian education — preparing them for life with a firm moral foundation and academic excellence.
"Faire son devoir" — to do one's duty.
