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.
