Dr Sarto Esteves was instrumental in helping the first principal of OLPS, an Irish Redemptorist to raise funds to set up the first school building and this was the beginning of a long association between the Redemptorists and the Esteves family.[2]

History

Our Lady of Perpetual Succour High School was established in 1957. The first batch of students were transferred from the nearby St. Anthony High School, which then became St. Anthony's Girls High School.

Notable alumni
gollark: Not just occasional "team building days" or something.
gollark: I think the "random facts about taxes and whatever" life skills should be learned independently and the vague general stuff like "working in teams" would be best learned through actually doing it seriously.
gollark: I would of course replace the English lesson badness with bringing arbitrary books in to read yourself.
gollark: School but instead of reading random poems you memorise 'life skills' would be quite ae ae ae, as they say.
gollark: If I were to redesign school, it would be much less regimented (you would not be grouped by year etc.), more flexible (an actually sane schedule and more/earlier choice of subjects), and focus on more general skills (not overly specific reading of books, or learning procedures for specific maths things, or that sort of thing). Additionally, more project-based work and more group stuff.
