In September 1993 St George's students had the privilege of meeting Princess Diana while she was visiting the St George's stand at the 'Britain in Luxembourg' Exhibition.

St George's experienced rapid expansion over the first six years due to the School's ability to cater for the varied needs of students between the ages of 2.5 and 11. In September 1996 St George’s moved to Luxembourg-Cents, allowing the school to have enough space to 'spread its wings'. St George's appointed a new Headteacher, Mr J.D. Boyce, and was able to operate a special needs programme in parallel with its mainstream classes for students with learning difficulties. This included intensive assistance for students who joined with little or no English.

''St George’s is a small school where children are happy and standards of learning and behaviour are high. Many dragons have been slain over the years and today it stands on the threshold of a secure and successful future. It represents the best of the English Primary education in the heartland of Europe.'' --J. Jackson (founder of St George’s), 1999.

The School continued to develop its scope of activities, with its large range of clubs and societies. In October 2000, St George’s celebrated its 10-year anniversary.

A Royal Visit

A major highlight of the 2003 school year was a visit from Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex. He took time to interact with the students and meet the staff.

Over the years the demand to extend into the Secondary cycle of education continued to increase. In order to provide more building space the Ville de Luxembourg granted a temporary campus for students in Beggen. These porta cabins provided additional accommodation for two classrooms for Years 7-9 plus a library and science facilities. Between 2003 and 2005 the student population doubled, from 122 students to 229 students. Recognising the need for a single campus rather than two separate sites, the Ville de Luxembourg secured a permanent site in Hamm to cater for the large expansion. The new site in Hamm eventually replaced the porta cabins in Weimershof and Beggen. The initial capacity in Hamm was designed to take on 450 students with the possibility of expanding its facilities in the future.

One of the Most Exciting Days in the History of
St George’s

In April 2007, a selected few students along with the Head Teacher, Heather Duxbury, joined members of the school board, British Ambassador James Clark and Birgit Wachhorst from architecture firm Francoise Folmer & Associates for a tour of the construction site for the new school in Hamm.

In 2011 the construction of the Barthel Building was completed, providing spacious, well-equipped laboratories and classrooms that further enhanced the learning experience for students. The school flourished with 622 students and 125 staff members. In 2012, Luxembourgish was taught for the first time to years 5 and 6.

In September 2016 the School opened the Zinnen Building, named after the composer of Luxembourg's national anthem. The building offers large, spacious classrooms for students in Primary and Secondary and holds the school's state-of-the-art auditorium.

We look forward to the challenges of the future and are proud that we can celebrate almost 30 years of

achieving potential through challenge and care.
