You can call frame's CenterOnScreen method like this:

frame.CenterOnScreen()

And you can get system information from wx.SystemSettings class like this:

wx.SystemSettings.GetMetric(wx.SYS_SCREEN_X)
wx.SystemSettings.GetMetric(wx.SYS_SCREEN_Y)

For further information you can look in the documentation
