They were: Ronald Truhbuhovich, medical doctor and pioneer of critical care medicine in Auckland; Denis George Browne tenth Catholic Bishop of Auckland (1983–1994) and second Catholic Bishop of Hamilton (1994–present); and Cyril Eastlake (1930–2007), rugby league player who captained New Zealand at the 1954 World Cup and also played at the 1960 World Cup.[1]

There are six old boys who have been All Blacks including Bernie McCahill, second five-eighth and centre three-quarter (1987–1991). Two Catholic Bishops, Edward Russell Gaines (1926–1994), the first Bishop Hamilton (1980–1994) and his successor Denis George Browne attended the school, as did nearly 100 Catholic priests, deacons and religious.
