Great community of students, teachers, staff, parents. Expensive but top quality education, but has financial aid for those who want to study here but can't afford the tuition. Excellent facilities aid learning different subjects, which include Chinese. Students go on to become local and international leaders in different fields.

I'm not from Xavier. But, I've worked with a lot of alumni from this school in different types of businesses and they are all top notch. I will be enrolling my kids to this school.
