La Salle High School History
Multan’s 1st bishop F.B Cialeo who requested La Salle brother in 1959 to operate his school in Multan, felt that the same school should be started in People’s Colony. In 1961 La Salle brothers took the hold when 6-10 classes began functioning in the current brother’s residence.
The school building’s completion was pending. This school shifted in 1962, and four and five classes also started functioning.
