This initial location was due to the need to make alterations to the Dana Street Primary school building.

In April 1910, the Ballarat Continuation School moved to its present site at the corner of Sturt and Gillies streets, Lake Gardens.

Many buildings were constructed around the grounds for the farm, including a concrete silo which still stands today and is listed on the Heritage Council of Victoria's register.

[citation needed] When the main building was rebuilt and extended after the 1915 fire, the Assembly Hall was relocated to the top floor.

The tablet was unveiled by Major Baird on 9 April 1920 and features a finely executed mosaic mural symbolising the triumph of Good over Evil.

Students represent the school in a range of sports across all year levels including: Ballarat High has won the following BAS premierships.
