Used to know a kid named Wesley Soares that went here for about 11 years. He had a victim complex and thought that everyone hated him. Realistically, this Wesley kid was just an absolute weirdo. He was fat and ugly. He was never really bullied but he just had trouble making friends as people tended to avoid him. Even the people remotely close to him found his weird and annoying. The real reason why everyone avoided him is because of his outlandish claims. He would claim he had severe tourettes among other illnesses. People also avoided him due to the fact that he threatened people. He would constantly ward off any potential friends by telling them he was going to shoot them with his dad's gun or that he had a knife in his locker. Overall, this kid was just a absolute weirdo who should probably look at himself rather than blame others for his unhappiness.

Way to much homework, up to 4 hours a night from year 8. Not worth the money, if your not very religious don't come. They push religion really hard.

This is a wonderful school I went there for nearly 11 years and enjoyed every minute of it until the love from the students forced me to stay and not pay for years of therapy

Pretty people and facilities
Passionate and good teachers

reporting anything to the school does matter and the best they do is getting the other kid to pick up rubbish, which is a great idea.all facilities are incredible the campus is beautiful
trash never coats the school
there is lots of support for anyone

the bathrooms are fragrant and you cannot go in their without being treated in a positive manner and surrounded in hugging students

any media about the school via students will get you awarded, including honest reviews

it is worth the money at all for the education they provide

the teachers are genuinely nice people and are good but the good drastically out weighs the good.

This is a terrible school I went there for nearly 11 years and stuck it out until the abuse from the students forced me to leave and pay for years of therapy

Terrible people and facilities
Passionate and good teachers

reporting anything to the school doesn't matter and the worse they do is getting the other kid to pick up rubbish
all facilities are falling apart the campus is disgusting
trash coats the school
there is no support for anyone

the bathrooms are disgusting and you cannot go in their without being stuck in a haze of vape clouds and surrounded in fighting students

any media about the school via students will get you yelled at including honest reviews

it is not worth the money at all for the education they provide

the teachers are genuinely nice people and are good but the bad drastically out weighs the good.

Sophisticated schooling with a great working enviroment, whilst educating the whole child.
My children attend this school and i believe it is a must visit school to any parents that are looking for schools for their children to attend.
Couldn't have asked for a better school.
Passionate and friendly teachers who maintain a good worth ethic and are excellent at teaching.
Whenever you report something of great concern, i can assure you that the school will take action as they believe it is important to adress issues in a serious manner.

Disappointed with lack of new ideas thoughts, and values. I find a huge gap between the 'progressive aesthetics of the school and the 'progressive' actions.

The Loreto Sisters arrived in Perth in 1897 and established a school in Adelaide Terrace. In 1901 the Sisters opened Loreto Osborne in Claremont. The Jesuit Fathers, following a request from the Archbishop of Perth, opened St Louis School for Boys in 1938. In 1971 the Jesuit Fathers withdrew from proprietorship of St Louis leaving the school to the Archdiocese of Perth. Archbishop Goody appointed a School Council under the Chairmanship of Judge Lavan to organise and run the school.

The possibility of amalgamating the two schools in order to present a broader choice of educational opportunities for students was investigated. With much thought and preparation, the desired planning was achieved by the end of 1976. The new John XXIII College was to be located on the original sites with four distinct communities. The Junior Primary years were situated in the Koolyangarra Community, the Upper Primary grades were housed in Campion Community, St Louis Senior School became the home for Years 8 and 9, and the seniors, Years 10 to 12, were housed at Loreto College.

'Seek Justice' was the motto chosen for the new John XXIII College opened in 1977, following the amalgamation of Loreto College and St Louis School. Fr Daven Day, SJ was appointed the first Principal and Sr Bernadette Zeising IBVM was Vice-Principal.

Sr Denise Desmarchelier IBVM replaced Fr Day as Principal in 1979. One of her many challenges was to investigate the possibility of consolidating the school on one site. Fortunately, the College Council became aware that the State Government was planning to sell Swanbourne Hospital in order to consolidate the services it provided for mental health.

The Council successfully negotiated the purchase of the present 24.6 ha site for John XXIII College. The planning, which began in 1981, was brought to fruition when the students moved to the new campus at Mt Claremont on 11 May, 1986. Since then, there have been many additions all in the same architectural style.

Literally the worst school. Incompetent teachers bad community. Not worth the money go to Shenton. Better education at a public school

This school is the big good you should pay to go here but refuse the homework because it is child labour and you are forced to eat children
