Welcome to the site of the Institute of the Marist Brothers of the Schools (FMS - Fratres Maristae a Scholis)
We Marist brothers are religious consecrated to God, and we follow Jesus in the way that Mary did. We live in community and dedicate ourselves in a special way to the education of children and young people, with a preference for those who are the most neglected.
The Marist Brothers are in 79 countries on five continents. Using this map we invite you to take a trip around the world and see where we serve.Read more

Brother Amberoti Nantei, aged 33, took his final vows on Feb. 24 during a Mass celebrated at the Sacred Heart Cathedral in Tarawa Atoll, Kiribati.
The superior of the Pacific district, Br David McDonald, who is currently based in Auckland, New Zealand, received the vows on behalf of the general superior.
Other participants included the district’s Council members – Brothers Christopher Maney, Martin Pattison and Sefo Une, lay people as well as staff and students from St Louis High School.
“We brothers in Kiribati are deeply grateful and uplifted by all the support and encouragement we have been blessed with through Br Amberoti’s perpetual profession and look forward to working jointly with our Champagnat lay Marists in creating new expressions of our future Marist mission here in Kiribati,” affirmed a press release from the district. After the Mass, the welcoming speech of the principal of St Louis High School echoed the encouraging spirit of “new beginnings” present in the school this year.
