♦ What Is Sex Abuse
♦ Defamation
St Louis School Claremont, Perth. WA

the original school building
A forgotten piece of Jesuit history.
St. Louis School was a Catholic boys’ school founded by the Jesuits – their only school in Western Australia. It opened on 23 May 1938 The Jesuits ran the School until 1971, when it was handed over to the Catholic Archdiocese of Perth.
Speaking to a former student of St. Louis school, he said he and others he knows have no memory or knowledge of any sex abuse at St. Louis school.
So, even though there were 5 known/alleged sex offenders at St. Louis in the 1960-69 period they might have got lucky.
Then again, sex abuse is often in secret and kept secret, often the victim will say nothing.
It would be good to hear from other former students of St. Louis school, Claremont, Perth.
Sex Offenders who were at St. Louis School, Perth
