La Salle School Sentul was the first “branch school” of the Christian Brothers’ schools in

Kuala Lumpur. When the Japanese occupation ended in Malaya, there was a great demand
for education, with it, a demand for more schools.

The parish priest of St. Joseph’s church in Sentul, Rev. Fr. Belet opened a small private
school in 1948. It was then that the La Salle Brothers were requested to take over. The
Christian Brothers bought a piece of freehold land of four-and-a-half acres to build a new
school.

A new building was put up and on January 5, 1950, La Salle School Sentul was born.
