Saint Trembles was a prep school, presumably on Io, where a six-year-old Arnold Rimmer was sent to by his parents. This was after Arnold had been mercilessly bullied, presumably at Io House, and Arnold was sent to St. Trembles to get his confidence back.
Competitiveness was discouraged at St. Trembles, where you could run in any direction you wanted in the 100-meter race, or paint a picture, or stay at home and watch TV, and afterwards everyone got a "You're Really Special" trophy and a party bag.
Three million years later, after boarding SS Enconium, a ship where criticism was illegal, Rimmer was reminded of St. Trembles.
There were childish drawings by the adult crew on the walls, which Rimmer thought was also just like St. Trembles, where everything got hung up on the walls, even the garbage. ("Timewave", Series XII)
