School History & Details

St Joseph's Nudgee College was established in the year 1891, serving as the boarding site for St Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace. The college's location was chosen by Brother Patrick Ambrose Treacy, who initiated the Australian Province of the Christian Brothers, following a request from the then Archbishop of Brisbane, Robert Dunne. Brother D. F. Bodkin was named the inaugural Headmaster. By the time Nudgee College celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1941, Archbishop Sir James Duhig had referred to it as the jewel in the crown of the Christian Brothers' Schools in Queensland.
