The school is heavily influenced by the teachings of Saint Angela Merici. Many of the school's buildings are named after Italian cities and places such as Brescia and Lake Garda that were part of Merici's life. The college attracts many girls from remote locations throughout Queensland and New South Wales as boarders.
