CBC Perth was founded in 1894, located in the Central Business District of Perth. It was one of the first boarding schools in Western Australia. Initially at CBC Perth only day students were enrolled, but due to population growth in Western Australia during the gold rush period, pressure was put on the school to accept residential boarding students, the first of which were enrolled in June 1896. The site had physical limitations and in 1917, headmaster Br. Paul Nunan saw the necessity to acquire much larger property away from the city centre to accomodate the whole school. The brothers entered into negotiations for the purchase of 8 hectares (20 acres) at Point Heathcote on the Swan River, in 1928 they ended up purchasing 95 hectares (234 acres) on the Canning River just east of the Riverton Bridge naming it Clune Park. However, plans to develop this site were shelved due to the Great Depression.


In 1936, at the instigation of Br. Paul Keaney, the superior of nearby Clontarf Orphanage, 62.4 hectare (154 acre) were purchased from the Manning family at Mount Henry Peninsula at Salter Point on the Canning River at a cost of £9,925. In 1937 the bulk of the students and staff, together with academic/athletic records and membership in the Public Schools Association, moved to a newly established campus in Salter Point now named Aquinas College. The new campus included a replica of the College's original main building in the city centre.


The college is located on a 62 hectare (153 acre) campus, with 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) of water frontage on the Canning River. The campus consists of a high school for Years 8–12 and a junior school for Years 4–7, sporting grounds, and boarding facilities for 210 students.[8] A hectare (symbol ha) is a unit of area, equal to 10 000 square metres, commonly used for measuring land area. ...

In April 1937 the builders Snooks and Sons successfully tendered for the college building at a cost of ₤21,350. Earlier that year, the work of clearing the grounds and preparing the site was taken up vigorously with squads of boys from the old college playing a major role.[13][11]


In 1937, CBC Perth split; with boarders and some day boys going to the newly established Aquinas College in Salter Point. A nearby day and boarding school named St Patrick's College, which was run by CBC Perth closed in 1937, with its boarders and day students moving to Aquinas. The Aquinas College foundation stone was laid on July 11, 1937, and the school opened on February 27, 1938 with 173 boarders and 55 day pupils.[14] The Catholic Archbishop of Perth, Most Rev. Redmond Prendiville, addressed the first Headmaster, Br. C P Foley and students, on the November 19, 1938: "With the proud traditions of St Georges’ Terrace to sustain it, and with the additional advantages of new quarters and ideal surroundings, I have no doubt that Aquinas College will achieve still greater results in the moral and intellectual training of good Catholics and good citizens".[15] the Stone - south is towards the top of the image For the foundation-stone of a building, see Cornerstone. ... is the 192nd day of the year (193rd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Sport

CBC Perth was a founding member of the Public Schools Association of Western Australia in 1905. In the early years of the PSA, rivalry between the four schools was keen, the honour of the schools was closely linked with performance on the sporting field. CBC perceived themselves to be underdogs who had to work hard to build tradition at the school:[34] The Public Schools Association, known as the PSA is an association of seven independent boys schools in Perth, Western Australia that contest sporting events among themselves. ...

[W]e had no traditions to speak of. They had yet to be made – but the builders were even then stripping to the waist. We were late comers into the arena, and were despised, an object of scorn and derision, for we had hardly a scholastic attainment, or a single athletic performance to our credit. The stream of prosperity on which you not float so magnificently [in 1938] was not won without labour and effort. – Jack Savage[35]

When Aquinas was established in 1938 it took with it all of the sporting records and achievements of CBC Perth.[36] In 2006, Aquinas won the basketball, cross country, volleyball and water polo trophies in the PSA competition. Aquinas has also been successful in a wide range of other sports, and has held the following trophies more times than any other school; athletics, football, basketball, cricket, hockey, Head of the River rowing, volleyball, and water polo.[37] Image File history File links Metadata No higher resolution available. ...

Aquinas' unique position was highlighted in 1962 when Trinity moved from CBC Perth to a new site in East Perth and gained membership to the PSA. The sporting rivalry between the two schools is intense, heightened by their common claim to the heritage of CBC Perth. In these years, there was no doubt in the minds of Aquinas students that when the rest of the crowd at the inter-school athletics meeting shouted Kill the Micks they meant Aquinas. Given their record of seven wins from 1965–71 in that period, their assumption was justified.[38] East Perth at night with the Perth skyline in the background. ...


Aquinas became a member of the Junior School Heads Association of Australia (JSHAA) in 1958. Students in the junior school participate in JSHAA Sport, as well as sailing, softball and squash programs, which are run separate to the JSHAA sporting competition.[39][40] The Junior School Heads Association of Australia, informally known as the JSHAA is an incorporated body representing the heads of independent primary schools in Australia. ...

The college's students were the first to participate in the Red Cross soup patrol, the Adult Migrant conversational English program, and the Kindred Family support program. The college won Volunteering WA's difference award in 1998 and 2001 for innovative and outstanding service to the community. In 2002, the college became the first school in Australia to implement a graduate requirement of community service for senior students.[42] Red Cross redirects here. ...
