St. Anthony's Boys School is an English medium school and it is affiliated to the State Board. The School is located at St John's Road, Cleveland Town, Fraser Town, Bangalore Cantonment. The School is over 100 yrs old.
The school was founded in 1913 by a French Missionary Rev. Fr. Servanton. He served the parish and the school from 1898-1948.
When the school was established in 1913, there were only two dedicated masters, Mr. Thambu who was the head master himself and Mr. Thangam who assisted him. The start was made only with a few students and the classes were conducted in the present parish hall which was an old and small library then. The school had no buildings of its own.
Rev. Msgr. I. B. Pinto took the initiative and responsibility of putting up a permanent structure, without any financial backing and shouldering all the financial constrains. It was in 1950 that St. Anthony’s Primary School had a permanent ground floor. Rev. Fr. Anthony Sequeira took over and obtained a grant and approval for appointments in the department. During this period the number of staff also grew in size.
Miss B. T. Sakku was appointed as Headmistress in 1955, served the school almost 35 years. To meet the increasing demand of the students, she succeeded in getting departmental approval to open classes 6 and 7 in the year 1959 and also additional sections to classes 1 to 7. The Present Headmistress Mrs. J. Sagayamary was appointed in 1976 as an Asst. Mistress and posted as Graduate Headmistress in 1992. She has rendered her service for almost 37 years.
