Later becoming known as the Dominican Convent school. On 22 October 1984 it was purchased by the Sisters of St Paul de Chartres opening in 1986 as Aurora College. In 1997 Sister Angelina Fong arrived as School Director and changed its name from Aurora College to St Paul's International College. [1]
