The College caters for approximately 1,100 students[1] from early learning, through Year K to Year 12.
The College was founded in 1986 by John Darlington, who was the Rector of St Peter's Anglican Church, Campbelltown,[2] and began with the aim of providing secondary education based on Anglican principles for students progressing from St Peter's Anglican Primary School (Campbelltown). In 1997, the College added a Junior School.
