The college, after being known as Marist Brothers Pagewood and later Marist College Pagewood for over 50 years, changed to Champagnat Catholic College Pagewood in 2014 as part of a range of organisational and educational changes initiated by the college.[2] In 2023, the College renamed to Corpus Christi College as part of its transition from a single-sex (all boys) school to co-educational school.
