A Welcome from
“At Maryland Convent, we believe that every child is a gift — known by name, celebrated for their uniqueness, and called to grow in knowledge and faith. ”
Since our founding in 1967 by the OLA Sisters, Maryland Convent Private School has stood as a place where academic excellence and deep Catholic values walk hand in hand.
Every aspect of school life at Maryland Convent is shaped by four principles that have guided us since 1967.
A rigorous broad curriculum from Creche to Primary 6 delivered by qualified teachers.
Catholic values woven into every school day - Mass catechism moral formation and Holy Childhood.
High academic standards and co-curricular enrichment producing scholars who excel across Lagos.
A warm safe campus where families are partners with Open Days and gate open 9AM-2PM.
From a child’s earliest days through to confident Primary 6 scholars ready for secondary school — every stage is thoughtfully crafted at Maryland Convent.
Tender early care in a nurturing faith-filled environment.
Discovery through play in a structured early learning setting.
Building foundational literacy and numeracy with joy.
The first steps of formal academic excellence.
Deepening academic rigour with co-curricular enrichment.
Preparing scholars for secondary excellence.
Beyond the classroom, Maryland Convent offers a rich and varied school life that shapes the whole child.
Opening and Closing Mass each term, catechism classes for sacramental preparation, and the Holy Childhood Association every Wednesday — faith is woven into every school day.
Football, basketball, and biennial inter-house sports build competitive, healthy spirits.
Exhibitions, debates, and TV programme participation celebrating Nigerian heritage.
Carefully planned educational trips that broaden horizons far beyond the classroom.
Annual December visits to less-privileged homes, forming compassionate young citizens.
A beautifully maintained environment with horticultural displays — serene and stimulating.
Enrolment for the new academic session is now open. We welcome families from Crèche through Primary 6. Visit the school gate 9AM–2PM on weekdays or contact us to begin the process.
Parents and prospective families are warmly invited to our Open Day at the start of each term. Tour the school, meet our staff, and see our facilities first-hand.
Our Primary 5 & 6 debating team brought distinction to the school, advancing to the regional finals of the Lagos Catholic Schools Debate Competition.
Planning is underway for our annual December Community Service visit to less-privileged homes in the local area. Families who wish to contribute are warmly welcome.
