St. Josephs College was the first secondary school to be established in Samoa. It was set up by the Marist Brothers in February 1950 in Mulivai, until it moved to Lotopa a decade later due to limited space to extend the school to cater for its increasing school roll. Lotopa was a seven-acre estate and was further inland compare to Mulivai at the Apia Harbour. With hard work and determination, the Brothers and students managed to turn the seven-acre estate into a school compound and a sports field.
