History
Delany College was established in 1942 as Patrician Brothers' High School, a catholic, all-boys school catering for students in Years 7 to 10.
The school became a Years 7 to 12, co-educational college in 1997 founded by Quentin Evans (a teacher at St Aloysius College), in order to meet the changing needs of the local community. The school was subsequently renamed Delany College after the Patrician Brothers' founder, Bishop Daniel Delany.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of progress is written in the blood of men and women who have dared to espouse an unpopular cause, as, for instance, the black man’s right to his body, or woman’s right to her soul.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“They are a sort of post-house,where the Fates
Change horses, making history change its tune,
Then spur away o’er empires and o’er states,
Leaving at last not much besides chronology,
Excepting the post-obits of theology.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“I saw the Arab map.
It resembled a mare shuffling on,
dragging its history like saddlebags,
nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.”
—Adonis [Ali Ahmed Said] (b. 1930)
