Dominic College was created in 1973 when Savio College, Holy Name Secondary School for Girls', Savio Primary School and St. John's Primary Schools all merged to create the first co-educational catholic college in Tasmania. In 1995 a restructuring of Catholic education in Tasmania saw Dominic's secondary college (years 11 & 12) merge with other Catholic schools in Hobart to form Guilford Young College.
