History
The first Catholic secondary college or High school in Wodonga was Saint Augustine's, located on Osborne Street, just down the hill from the primary school, it had grades from 1st year high school to 6th and was closed down at the end of the 1976 school year and became a nursing home in 1977. In 1977 till 1979 the Catholic Secondary school as 'Catholic College' was located in rented premises just behind the Wodonga Court House between the Swimming pool. The 'new' school was located adjacent to St Monica's Primary school.
Catholic College Wodonga is part of Catholic Education Wodonga (CEW). Because of this association students are often streamed from the three catholic primary schools which make up the rest of CEW. These schools are St. Monicas Primary School, St. Augustines Primary School and Frayne College Baranduda. The latter is a prep to 8 school.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Every literary critic believes he will outwit history and have the last word.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“The best history is but like the art of Rembrandt; it casts a vivid light on certain selected causes, on those which were best and greatest; it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
