History

In 1931, operation of the school was turned over to the Jesuits of the English Canada Province of the Society of Jesus, a religious order of priests and brothers[1] with Fr. John Holland, SJ, being the school's first rector. This period also saw the school relocated to its second location on Ellice Avenue in Winnipeg with construction being completed in 1939. In 1964, the high school located to its current location at 2200 Grant Avenue in Tuxedo, now part of Winnipeg.
