Rosebank College

Rosebank College is an independent Roman Catholic comprehensive co-educational secondary school in the Benedictine tradition, located in Five Dock, an inner-western suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

Founded in 1867 by Archbishop John Bede Polding and the Sisters of the Good Samaritan, Rosebank College is one of the earliest schools in New South Wales and is among the oldest in Australia.

The buildings provide the college basketball courts, the Benedict Auditorium (located on the second floor of the Ottilien Hall), an undercroft play area, the cafeteria and learning spaces including science labs, music, dance and drama rooms.

The Scholastica Research and Study Centre, IT support desk, hospitality kitchens and art rooms are located in Subiaco Hall.

The Rosebank College campus is notable for the high brick fence surrounding its perimeter and the extensive bank of roses that has existed on the property since the late 1840s, the historic chapel and private cemetery gardens where the early Good Samaritan Sisters are buried.
