Our mission

We seek to maintain our strong connection with our diverse community and to continue to demonstrate the Patrician tradition of ‘hospitality’ as students play and learn together, across all age groups and cultures.

We aim to understand each student and take the time to personalise their learning, ensuring their learning goals will be met.

We seek to ensure that our students, their development, wellbeing, and career pathways are at the centre of all we do.

We look to provide access to a broad range of curriculum options and projects that are developed around individual students’ strengths, and to connect learning in the classroom to relevant future tertiary study and employment pathways.

We want to help every student reach their potential and set achievable goals that will prepare them for success.

Our history

Delany College was established in 1942 and was originally known as Patrician Brothers’ High School (Years 7-10). It was one of many Patrician schools in New South Wales and throughout the world.

In 1997 the school became a co-educational College (Years 7-12), to reflect and meet the changing needs of the community. In honour of its rich Patrician heritage, the College was named after the Patrician Brothers’ founder, Bishop Daniel Delany.
