J.H. Bruns Collegiate is a secondary school in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, established in 1972. It has approximately 760[1] students from grades 9 to 12. It offers a varied curriculum with a total of 130 courses.

History

The school was named after Brother Joseph H. Bruns S.M., who was as an educator and superintendent in St. Boniface.[2][3] The school opened in Southdale in September 1972. Initially, J. H. Bruns shared its gymnasium and sports facilities with the Southdale Recreation Association. During this period, the school functioned as a middle school offering grades 5 to 8, with higher grades being added each year thereafter. On October 30, 1975, a fire occurred at J. H. Bruns Collegiate. By the spring of 1976 classrooms were renovated, and a new wing was added to the school, which included the Industrial Arts and Human Ecology facility.[4]
