In 1930, Mr K. Kathiravelu founded the town school in Jalan Arab, Muar. He was the school principal from 1930 to 1933. Rev. Fr. J.P. Francois purchased the school from him in 1933 and renamed it as St. Andrew's School. The students are called 'Andreans'. The school motto is'SAUVITER IN MODO FORTITER  IN RE' which means 'Gentle in Manners, Firm in Deeds'.

 

The La Salle Brothers took over the administration of the school in 1949. In October, 1954, the late Rev Bro Robert O'Sullivan took over as Principal of the school. He remained as school principal for 25 years until 1980. He was responsible for the fame of the school. It was during his tenure as principal that a little unknown school had earned itseld the name and fame as the much sought after by school-going parents which elbowed their ways to find a place in the school for their children's education. The school had since missed a great principal of all times!
