In 1994, it became an [[Anglican]] school in the Diocese of [[Brisbane]], and changed its name to Cannon Hill Anglican College to reflect this. The school has had five [[head teacher|principals]]: Rod Wells, the College founder, Suzanne Bain, Greg Wain, Robyn Bell and current Principal Gary O'Brien.

From 30 March until 22 May, full-scale operations were interrupted due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and under advice from the Queensland Government. Regular schooling was re-introduced on 25 May, after a slow re-introduction of senior students back to the college.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chac.qld.edu.au/?history|title=College History|publisher=Cannon Hill Anglican College|accessdate=30 January 2011}}</ref> == Facilities == The College has a number of modern facilities, including an 1100-seat auditorium, a design and technology workshop, product design studio, graphic design studio and a research centre.
