History
The Sisters of Charity established a convent at the Grantuly homestead in Ashgrove in 1925. The St Finbarr's primary school was founded in that year. The registration for a secondary school, originally known as Grantuly College, was received on 28 April 1928 and the first classes started in 1929. Grantuly College was renamed Mt St Michael's College in 1941 when a new three-story brick building was constructed.

House system
The school is divided into a house system with four houses.

Campus
From the original Grantuly homestead where rooms were set up for school, the College campus has seen significant growth and change over the years. Nestled at the top of the convent lawn, in beautiful garden surrounds, the homestead has been magnificently restored and houses the administration centre for the college.

In 1941, the first brick three-story building was constructed on the site. This building has been extended, renovated and expanded over the years.

The Killindarbin building was opened in 1998. The building provides Design Technology facilities and the Mathematics learning hub. The name Killindarbin comes from the Turrbal people who are traditional owners in the area.

In 2011, the Ionian Centre was completed providing facilities for music performance, general learning areas, state of the art science laboratories and a fully equipped Auditorium.

The Sophia Centre is a multipurpose hall that is used for major events, liturgies and whole school activities. It provides spaces for Physical education, Dance and Drama classes during the day.

Completed in 2016, the Arts Precinct provides a creative space for students to express their artistic abilities. The Arts Precinct includes a media production room with green screen, print making facilities, spray paint booth, art classrooms and production room.
