History
The school was established in 1900 by the Faithful Companions of Jesus, and 2015 marked 115 years of the college.
Sport
The school has been a member of the Catholic All Schools Sports Association (CAS) from 1999 until 2010. Plans are being made to reintroduce the CAS sports days to students.
