The Alice Smith School was started by Mrs Alice Smith at her home in Jalan Eaton, Kuala Lumpur, in 1946. At the end of the Second World War, Mrs Smith started teaching her own daughter and soon attracted a loyal following of other expatriate children. When she left Malaya for Australia in 1950, the parents of children attending the school formally incorporated the Alice Smith Schools Association. In this remarkable not-for-profit association, the student body comprised the founder nations of Britain, Ireland, New Zealand and Australia and later children of all nationalities.
In 1952, the school moved to its current Primary Campus premises in Jalan Bellamy to accommodate the increasing number of students. The school grew steadily over the years and HRH Prince Edward opened the Secondary Campus at Equine Park in 1997.
After 60 years, the Alice Smith School has a rich web of alumni stretched across the globe. Today, each one of our 1,500 students is educated with the same level of personal dedication, inspiration and student focused learning as Mrs Smith had for her first class in 1946.
