History
[edit | edit source]Caroline Chisholm Catholic College was founded in 1997 with the amalgamation of three Braybrook colleges: St John's College for Boys, Christ the King College for Boys, and Chisholm College.
Pasawm Lyhym (aged 16 years old) was killed in a school stabbing at Sunshine Station on a Thursday, 18th of May.[1] The victim was from Staughton College. There were two other victims injured but later treated at hospital.[citation needed] Some offenders were from Caroline Chisholm Catholic College evident by their bags. Four boys were charged.[2] Security guards were then placed at Caroline Chisholm Catholic College for security reasons.[3] On the 1st of August, two teenagers were charged after a 15-year-old was chased from the outside of the school grounds of Caroline Chisholm Catholic College by two males brandishing machetes.[4][5][6] Some news articles said it may be revenge for the death of Pasawm Lyhym).[7]
