Ringwood Secondary College

This is an accepted version of this page Ringwood Secondary College is a co-educational public secondary school located in the eastern suburb of Ringwood in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

Ringwood Secondary College opened as Ringwood High School in 1954[1][2] and was one of the first high schools to be constructed in the new Light Timber Construction (LTC) style, which was developed by the Public Works Department in Victoria to address a chronic shortage in high school places in the 1950s.

The college has developed a centre of excellence for Automotive, Engineering and Manufacturing.

In recent competitions, Melbourne School Bands Festival, Mt Gambier Generations in Jazz and the Royal South Street Competition, the school has received awards for its stage bands, strings ensembles and symphonic orchestra.

The Ringwood Secondary College Choir and Orchestra appeared in a 1998 music video by Australian alternative band This Is Serious Mum, leading fans to believe that one or more of the anonymous band members were actually teachers at the college.
