History
Genazzano FCJ College is an independent Catholic school for girls located on a single campus at Kew, which it has maintained since its inception. It is one of many schools across the world established by sisters of the Faithful Companions of Jesus (FCJ). Founded in 1889, it was the second FCJ school in Australia, after the former Vaucluse College, Richmond. It was intended originally as a boarding school providing a Catholic education primarily to girls from the country. It retains a boarding house to the present day.
