Foundation Delany College was established in 1942 as '''Patrician Brothers' High School''', a Catholic
all-boys school catering for students in Years 5 to 10. The school was founded to serve the growing Catholic population in the Granville area and was staffed entirely by members of the Patrician Brothers congregation.
Transition to Delany College In 1997, the school underwent a significant transformation to meet the changing educational needs of the local community. Under the leadership of the first lay principal,
Quentin Evans, the school became a co-educational Year 7 to 12 college. At this time, the institution was renamed "Delany College" in honour of
Bishop Daniel Delany, the founder of the Patrician Brothers. The late 1990s and early 2000s saw a major building program to upgrade the campus facilities for senior secondary education and co-educational requirements. While the school transitioned to lay leadership, it maintains a strong connection to its Patrician heritage.
