History
The school was named after Brother Joseph H. Bruns S.M., who was as an educator and superintendent in St. Boniface. 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.
