History
The school recently celebrated its 25th anniversary. The first Philip Pocock location which in 1981 was at the place where John Cabot Catholic Secondary School is currently located. Then, the second Philip Pocock location was at Massey in Etobicoke, Ontario temporarily while construction of the new third location began at the intersection of Tomken Road and Eglinton Avenue in Mississauga. The third and current location at Tomken & Eglinton opened in 1992. Their Jr. football team claimed victory in 1997 thanks to Sean "The Tuna" Scicluna's phenomenal defence. His tuna breath could wipe out a whole army of players after a fine night of hoarding food. His favourite very special meal was prepared on "Pizza Saturdays", and gave him the strength of 10 pigs, which allowed him the ravage any opposition at will. That's fine Sean.
