St. Martin's School was not born a grown-up. It also experienced babyhood, a childhood before becoming the toothed adult we see it be today. The very Rev. Mother Mary Martha Onwuachi (EHJ) will forever be remembered as the individual whose personal conviction and vision, graciously aided by inspiration from on high, who started this long story called St. Martin's Catholic School, Lawanson, Surulere. It all started in 1968 at No. 7, Simisola Street which is off Olufemi Road in Lawanson area of Surulere in Lagos with just a child. Soon the dream gathered momentum and the number quickly sky -rocketed to 175.
Obviously, it was initially a Day Care outfit which was meant to be the needed help to working mothers who had no baby - seaters or nannies nor house maids. As the babies grew up into the children who needed to be prepared for formal education, this St. Martin's Day Care graduated into St. Martin's Day Care and Nursery School. Initially, on completion of the Nursery course, the “Seedlings" were transplanted to ST. Catherine Model School, which was the nearest sister catholic school. This arrangement lasted until 1991 when this school started its own Primary Section, during the stewardess-ship of Rev. Sister Monica Maris Aturu (EHJ).
With this development came the need to expand. This need was sharply heightened by ecological challenges which the evolving school had to grapple with. The frequent flooding of the premises had to be stamped out with a bold expansionist drive which was started by sister Monica Aturu in 1994 and completed by Rev. sister Florence Maris Emurayeveya in 1995. During this epic period of renovation and reconstruction, the bungalow building was converted into a one-storey building as it is in its present form.

Beyond any reasonable doubts, our great school has been standing tall among his equals in Lagos. It has become a voice to reckon with and like a force which cannot be stopped. It has produced great men and women in various facets of life who are making impacts in the society. The last decade which is from 2008 when we had our school's 40th anniversary has been an awesome moment for us. We thank God almighty for His grace. Then in 2018, the school celebrated her 50th Golden Jubilee existence. The school has been growing from strength to strength and from glory to glory. More than 200 pupils have graduated in the decade.
