[edit] History

The present College was officially opened in 1969 to provide additional facilities for the then students of the Sisters of Mercy Convent High School. In 1980 Assumption College became a co-educational Junior Secondary College following the rationalisation of the school system in Warwick. The boys from the Christian Brothers College came to Assumption College as full time students. Assumption College introduced Year 11 in 2000 and graduated its first Year 12 class in twenty-six years in 2001.
