Schola Osloensis, known in Norwegian as Oslo Katedralskole (Oslo Cathedral School) and more commonly as "Katta",[1] is a selective upper secondary school located in Oslo, Norway.
The school offers the college preparatory Studiespesialisering (literal translation: specialization for studies) of the Norwegian school system. It is one of four schools in Norway that can trace its origins directly to the Middle Ages and is generally regarded as one of the country's most prestigious schools, which celebrated its 850th anniversary in 2003.[2]
The school's motto is the Latin phrase Non scholae, sed vitae discimus which translates to "We do not learn for the sake of the school, but for the sake of life".[1]
