About us
Welcome to Centennial Old Students Association!
Centennial Secondary School, Mattru Jong:
The school was founded to mark the one-hundredth anniversary of Missionary work of the then U.B.A. Church in Sierra Leone. Its foundation stone was laid on 7th January 1955.
CENTENNIAL Secondary School gives a sound Christian Education to boys and girls who fulfil the entrance requirements. The school is located on a lovely site along the River Jong in Bonthe District.
School starts at 7:20 a.m. with Roll Call followed by Assembly for devotions, Announcements, and the National Anthem. Classes begin at 7:45 a.m. There are eight periods of 40 minutes’ duration, with breaks at the end of the 2nd, 4th and 6th periods. Classes end for the day at 1:35 p.m.

Pupils move from class to class during the day. All subjects offered by the school are compulsory up to form three (Boys offer woodwork instead of Domestic Science). Pupils choose subjects in forms four and five up to a maximum of nine.
Form four and five pupils go to the library when it is a period for a subject they are not offering.
