While the school is independent from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Wagga Wagga, it has a strong Catholic ethos with a religious education based on the Catechism of the Catholic Church and an emphasis on the lives of the saints as role models.
The school motto is Verum, Pulchrum et Bonum (Truth, Beauty and Goodness).
The school now has over 150 students ranging from Kindergarten to Year 12, with the 2019 HSC class holding eight students.
Through the entire school year holy and religious catholic events partake at the school ranging from Mass of the Saints in November to weekly Friday mass in the church "Help of Christians" next door.
