Marist Old Boys Society
The school's alumni organisation falls under the constitution set out by the Marist Old Boys Society or MOBS. Entrance to the society is automatic upon matriculation from a Marist school and not limited to just St David's old boys. The administration, Annual General Meeting and committee majority is, however, dominated by old boys of St David's and all of these functions are hosted by the school itself. In recent years the MOBS committee has worked closely with The Foundation and with the PTA in a number of successful fund raising events. The MOBS serve a number of alumni functions including data-base management, communications and reunion co-ordination as well as identifying and reporting the successes of past students in their personal lives and careers.

Famous quotes containing the words boys and/or society:
“Ms. Dog wouldn’t give them her buttocks.
She would moon at them.
Just at the killers of the dream.
The bus boys of the soul.
Or at death
who wants to make her a mummy.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“In the United States, it is now possible for a person eighteen years of age, female as well as male, to graduate from high school, college, or university without ever having cared for, or even held, a baby; without ever having comforted or assisted another human being who really needed help. . . . No society can long sustain itself unless its members have learned the sensitivities, motivations, and skills involved in assisting and caring for other human beings.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
