Templestowe High School (School No. 8375)
Full description
Templestowe High School (VA 5303) was the first secondary school in the Shire of Doncaster and Templestowe. It was established in 1960 within temporary quarters at Greythorn High School (School No. 7875; VA 4748).
In February 1961, the first two stages of its permanent building were completed and the school moved to its permanent location at the corner of Manningham Road and Hazel Drive in Lower Templestowe, a site once occupied by a gold mine. In 1961, Banyule High School (School No. 4746) and Watsonia High Schools (School No. 8445) temporarily shared the premises while awaiting their own permanent facilities.
The school was officially declared open in March 1963 by The Honourable J.S. Bloomfield, Minister of Education, though it soon faced cramped conditions due to a population boom in Templestowe despite the addition of “A” Block and “C” Block in 1964. Relief came in 1969 with the opening of Doncaster High School (School No. 7776).
Sports ovals and an outdoor gymnasium were completed in 1970 and 1971 respectively and in 1972 the Commonwealth Library Building and Commonwealth Science Block were added to the school.
In 1977, the School Council and Curriculum Committee were formed, followed by the establishment of the Administrative Committee in 1983.
The 1990s marked a significant era of transformation in education throughout Victoria, as the Jeff Kennett government initiated numerous school closures and mergers across the state.
In 1994, a decline in enrolments led to the ‘merging’ of Templestowe High School with Templestowe Technical (School no. 7372) to form the new Templestowe College (School No. 8823). Templestowe High School was closed and the site was sold to make way for the David Road housing estate.
Data time period: [1960 TO 1994]
