More than just a school, it is a seedbed of vocations (seminarium) where young boys are nurtured in the way of Christ, discerning their call to the Catholic priesthood.

The Seminary offers both junior and senior secondary formation, blending academic excellence with spiritual, human, and pastoral growth. Our mission is to guide students to become responsible, God-fearing, and intellectually sound individuals ready to serve the Church and society.
