Melbourne High School

About

Located in AUSTRALIA. This page is not an official page of the school and any opinions expressed on this page do not represent the official views of the school. Founded over 100 years ago, admission to Melbourne High School (MHS) is by select entry.

Story

Melbourne High School (MHS) is the only selective State School in Victoria for boys only in Years 9–12. The School continues to maintain its standing as one of the finest schools in Australia and develops the finest thinkers and leaders in Australia.

Melbourne High School traces its history back to 1854 and the establishment of the National Model School. In 1905, the School became the Continuation School and therefore proclaimed itself as the first state secondary school in Victoria. It is a statewide provider of broad academic education for boys in Years 9 to 12. The School has 1365 students, with approximately 340 students in each of four-year levels - year 9, year 10, year 11 and year 12. Admission to the School is by competitive examination with a small discretionary factor. A supplementary intake also takes place in Years 10, 11 and 12. Students are drawn from a very wide cultural and socio-economic background and come largely from the greater metropolitan area of Melbourne and inner country locations. It is this ongoing dynamic cultural mix that has remained a cornerstone of the School's success.

The School is in central Melbourne, in the City of Stonnington, and within the Southern Metropolitan Region of the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (DEECD).

The School is located close to the Melbourne Central Business District and is impressively situated on a hill overlooking the leafy and attractive district of South Yarra. The School is adjacent to the Yarra River and on the corner of Chapel Street and Alexandra Avenue. It is well serviced by rail, tram and bus transport as well as bicycle paths and major roadways. Its location and the appearance of the spectacular "Castle On The Hill", have given the School a mystique that has added significantly to its ethos and its standing within the community.

Before I joined this school, I thought that it was a dream come true if I attended. The legacy was second to none, the academic statistics were off the charts and reputation was phenomenal. Here's a perspective they don't show you though: the majority of students are self taught, the depression and mental health is far too high, resulting in two friends jumping on train tracks, and about half the teachers are apathetic to the students' conditions. If you go to this school, expect two things: having to self-teach oneself more because teachers would go at an absurdly fast pace mainly VCE and the opportunity to do anything. There are tons of opportunities because of the legacy and reputation, but a lot of the acclaimed positives are smoke and mirrors.
I didn't mean to enter your school, I just accidentally ended up here. I'm not your student, please ask a short silver-haired female teacher to watch her attitude and stop being so mean! Rude and disrespectful! I can't imagine how such a teacher can teach students
Teachers are really bad and majority of students are egotistic people who think they are better!! Thank god i graduated!!
students are always infesting south yarra station at 3:45pm. that's my job!!!
The LONG-TERM legacy of this school on a fellow OLD BOY has been rather tragic >> after having the schools Mantra of Honouring the Work drummed into him for x4 straight years >> 25 years ON >> ALL he mainly focuses on now is his work to the exclusion / detriment of everything else
