Sr Aloysius received the holy habit of the Order on June 29 1898 and was finally professed on June 22 1900. During the following years, she was a member of the Angas Street congregation and taught the Primary Class before being appointed Principal of St Aloysius College in May 1914. In 1917, Sr Aloysius relinquished the position due to ill-health but remained active within the congregation. 

In 1921, Sr Aloysius was in charge of the convent at Parkside and of the other seven sisters who formed the community. In 1930 she moved to Victor Harbor where she became the first superior of Coolock School, with three other nuns to assist her. Sr Aloysius died in 1939.
