The Public Schools Association Portal

The Public Scools Association (PSA) was formed in 1905 by the Christian Brothers College (now Aquinas College), the Church of England Grammar School (now Guildford Grammar School), The High School (now Hale School) and Scotch College as a group of independent boys schools (Public schools in the traditional English use of the term). In 1952, Wesley College was admitted to the organsation, followed by Christ Church Grammar School in 1958 and finally in 1968 Trinity College. Although other independent boy schools exist in Perth, the PSA limited admission to schools accepting boarders (note that Trinity College did accept boarders upon its admission to the PSA, but no longer does).
