St Paul's College, formerlySt Paul's Technical College andSt Paul's Technical School, was a Catholic boys school in Ballarat.[1]
In 1948, the Bishop of Ballarat, James O'Collins established St Paul's Technical College, inviting the Christian Brothers to continue their work for boys through the provision of technical education.
In 1960, Alice Fanning bequeathed property inMt Clear to the Sisters of Mercy. In 1967 the land was developed for a senior school for girls fromSacred Heart College, named St Martin's in the Pines. The school became co-educational in 1988, with many boys in the senior years of St Paul's attending St Martin's in the Pines.[2][3]
In 1987, the school moved from Lydiard Street's Ludbrook House to the formerBallarat Orphanage on Victoria Street.
In 1995, the college amalgamated with Sacred Heart College and St Martin's in the Pines to formDamascus College Ballarat.[1]
