Grenville, School of Secrets

Andrew Hale-Byrne, along with Ewan Whyte, students at the Grenville Christian College, tell the bizarre story of how an elitist cult on Cape Cod, founded by two self-proclaimed holy women, managed to infiltrate and take over a preppy Anglican boarding school in Ontario.

With patronage from the highest levels of Canada's government and business elites, Grenville College and its partners actively covered up abuse decades of abuse and malpractice. What followed were many years of institutional violence -- psychological, physical and sexual abuse -- against the children of the school, all under the guise of good clean Anglicanism.

Andrew and Ewan, raised in the Community of Jesus School, chronicle the history of the abused victims and how Andrew exposed the school management, the cult and the Ontario establishment.

The upper-crust cult on Cape Cod was a “who’s who” list of the cream of society, including a Rockefeller heiress, a Chairman of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and a Chairman of Arthur Young. Andrew and Ewan provide a look inside the peculiar world of a religious cult at the apex of American and Canadian societies, from the dizzying heights of wealth that backed the school to the harrowing suffering of students and their families.

Due to Andrew's expose, retaliation campaigns launched by the school, its defendants and a corrupt Anglican hierarchy have targeted many victims of abuse. However, death threats have not intimidated Andrew from his mission and his fight for justice continues in the courts, now working alongside Ewan to further expose the den of evil lying beneath Grenville.

In 2023, a three-panel tribunal ruled in favour of the victims of the abuse from Grenville Christian College, awarding them 12 million dollars in total damages. While such a victory has been won, this sum is a mere pittance compared to the pain and suffering many have endured and continue to live with everyday. Countless former students have committed suicided, including recently in the United States, where a former cult member self immolated. As the saga continues to twist and turn beyond the courtroom and into the lives of Grenville’s victims, Andrew and Ewan present a work documenting the extent of the school’s actions, hoping to finally provide some comfort and closure for those who escaped their twisted alma mater.
