Welcome to Hennessy Catholic College

Welcome to Hennessy Catholic College, a comprehensive Catholic school for students from Years 7 - 12. Hennessy is a regional college proudly catering for students from Young, Boorowa, Cootamundra, Harden-Murrumburrah, Grenfell and surrounding towns.

Our college retains the beautiful buildings that were the former convent of the Presentation Sisters, and the legacy of our Catholic roots is evident across the grounds and the community.

Wellbeing at Hennessy

At Hennessy we value and foster the wellbeing of each and every student. Each student is a member of a Pastoral Care (PC) Class that meets every morning and consists of students from Year 7 to 12. Students remain in their PC class for their 6 year journey at the College, building strong bonds with their peers and PC teacher. Students transform from being supported by, to becoming the leaders within their PC, House and the College. The PC teacher works in partnership with the student and parent and should be the first point of contact for any concerns.
