This Catholic boys' school was established in Grey Street behind St Patrick’s Church, and officially opened 29 January 1939. It was designed by Robin Hood and built by Messrs Karlsson and Hood. Also known as Marist Brother's St Patrick's High School, it became a full secondary school in 1942. It closed in 1974, with the opening of St Peter's College. The buildings have since been demolished.
