The college is recognised throughout North Queensland as a school that has achieved great success in the academic, cultural, sporting and vocational fields since opening in 1949.

The College today is the result of a merger of two secondary Catholic schools, Gilroy College for boys and Santa Maria College for girls,which both opened in the district in 1949. The changes in secondary education and the abolition of the Scholarship year led to the amalgamation of the two schools onto the Gilroy site in 1973.
