Melba Secondary College

Following planning funding, we will upgrade and modernise the school. We are completing Stage 3 upgrades at this school.

This includes:

• building a new performing arts space
• creating a new oval
• improving car parking.

​We built a Science Technology Engineering Arts and Maths (STEAM) building and a competition-standard basketball stadium (developed with Sports and Recreation Victoria and the Kilsyth Basketball Club).​

This project, designed by Y2 Architecture, was a finalist for Best School Project – Between $5 million and $10 million in the 2020 Victorian School Design Awards.

We rebuilt Melba Secondary College to bring the junior and senior campuses together on one site, giving students state-of-the-art facilities.

The 2016–17 State Budget funding built new facilities, including three double-storey buildings to provide space for growing enrolments. Students are now able to collaborate in flexible modern learning spaces, and the school has gained new administration offices, a library and cafeteria.

The first stage of the rebuild of Melba Secondary College, completed in June 2018 for $18 million, won the award for Best School Project – Above $5 million at the 2018 Victorian School Design Awards​.
