History:
The school was established in 1894 by the Presentation Sisters as a parish school and it has a proud tradition. The Sisters maintained a presence in the school until the first lay Principal was appointed in 1993. The current Principal, Mr Anthony Healey, was appointed in 2007. The school is an integral part of the St. Finn Barr’s Parish which also contributes financially to the school’s budget. St. Finn Barr’s is one of the Catholic Education Office’s systemic schools.

Location:
The school is on a flat 1.5 hectare site within a residential area at Invermay. The school buildings are situated in the front half of the block with sports ovals, tennis / netball courts and play areas at the rear. The parish church (St. Finn Barr’s) is adjacent to the school.
