Kinross Wolaroi is a non-selective school and currently caters for approximately 1,110 students from early learning, through Kindergarten to Year 12, including 350 boarders.

[4] Weymouth House, a small privately owned school for boys, was established in 1886, in the Union Bank building, Orange.

The school was established by Mr Thomas Richards, the sole owner and teacher, having come to Orange from All Saints College in Bathurst.

The school was a success, and in 1893 the Wolaroi mansion, built by Mr John Charles McLachlan, was purchased, enabling the boys to move to a larger campus.

This provided an opportunity for the Methodist Church to secure the site and the continuation of a boy's college in Western New South Wales.

The college reopened in 1926 under the direction of Mr Stanley Brown who continued to expand the school and increase the diversity of subjects and programs offered at Wolaroi.

Throughout the 1920's the Presbyterian community realised that there was a need for the establishment of a girls' school that could provide a well-rounded education based upon the ideals found within reformed Christianity.

This expansion saw students being able to be involved in a variety of programs from drama and music to cadets, sport and the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme.

[5] A former Preparatory School Principal at Kinross Wolaroi, John Thomas Kennett, was in 1998 convicted on a range of charges for sex offences against 12 boys.

Typically, a CUO is in Year 11, and has served for four years in the cadet corp.[21] The co-curricular music programme at Kinross Wolaroi includes elective instrumental, musicianship, vocal tuition, and a range of ensemble music, including an orchestra, concert band, stage band, chamber strings, chamber choir and many more.

Instrumental and vocal tuition occurs during the normal school day with individual students attending lessons once a week.

In 2017, Kinross Wolaroi School launched The Regional Engagement Enterprise (TREE) initiative, which provides community-based learning experiences, especially opportunities in local agribusinesses, for all students from Kindergarten to Year 12.

[23] In the Senior school, boys may participate in sports such as rugby, soccer, cricket, cross country, basketball, water polo, swimming, rowing and tennis.

Girls may compete in sports such as hockey, netball, basketball, waterpolo, swimming, aerobics, squash, diving, rowing, softball, soccer and tennis.
