Patrician Brothers
The Patrician Brothers, an Irish order of Catholic teaching brothers, established a boys' school in Orange in 1890. Fourteen ex-students died in World War I.
The Patrician Brothers left Orange in 1927, when Bishop O'Farrell expelled the order from all schools in the Bathurst diocese following a dispute over syllabuses.
De La Salle Brothers
The De La Salle Brothers arrived in 1928 to take over the school. Additions to the Summer Street site opened in 1937 and a handball court in 1939.
In 1977 the school was absorbed into the co-educational James Sheahan Catholic High School.
