Abstract: The article focuses on the contribution the Marianist Brothers made to moral and integral boys’ education in their education philosophy at Matero Boys Secondary School popularly known as MaBoys. Cox’s theory of phenomenology of religion was used in order to generate empirical data from religious and lived experiences of the Marianist Brothers as well as the narrated stories from both former teachers and pupils of the first twenty-five years at MaBoys, (1966 to 1991). The objective intended to be achieved was to determine aspects of morality that have been integrated with education by Marianist Brothers of MaBoys. The study was purely qualitative and specifically used a follow-up case study design to capture and understand the Marianist applied pedagogical practices in enhancing former pupils’ lives after leaving the school. The findings indicated that the Marianist education was the core of morality. The Marianist education policy: One Education Ministry integrated the pedagogical practices of the five-fold Marianist charism in their education philosophy and formed Christ in souls of young people. The charism included the virtues of educate for formation of faith, provide an integral quality education, Education in Family spirit, educate for service, justice and peace and Education for adaptation and change this can be seen as evidence in that the Marianist imprint remained in the boys’ lives long after school.
