History	History Genazzano FCJ College was founded in 1889 by the Faithful Companions of Jesus (FCJ) Sisters. Inspired by Saint Ignatius and guided by the foundress Marie Madeleine d'Houët, the College is dedicated to Our Lady under the title Our Lady of Good Counsel. Genazzano is named after a town near Rome and is on the site at the top of Cotham Road hill in Kew, secured as an all-girls' boarding school by twelve founding sisters who sailed from England in 1882. The Wardell Building, built in 1889, housed classrooms, the Chapel and the Madeleine Performing Arts Centre, and possession occurred in April 1891. In 1948 Grange Hill was purchased to provide a dedicated primary campus for the ELC and Junior School, with further expansion adding a modern sporting and swimming centre, an information and resource centre, and a Music and Performing Arts centre on more than seven hectares of grounds.	History The school began in 1914 with eight enrolled students in a church hall. Miss Cullen purchased the school in 1915 and moved it to Were Street in 1930.
