Opened in 1960, the school has an enrolment of 1399 students as of 2016,[1] with its catchment area covering most of the City of Melville.[2] HistoryThe school was opened as Melville High School in February 1960, originally only with Years 8 and 9. Designed by architectural firm Parry, Parry and Rosenthal, and built by A. T. Brine and Sons Pty. Ltd., the school cost ₤324,493 to build, and was the first high school in Western Australia designed by a private architect.[3] The school's Parents and Citizens Association (P&C) was established in March 1960, with a Student Council being formed in 1964. The school's name was altered to the present Melville Senior High School in 1964.[4] A fire on 21 April 1970 destroyed part of the Arts and Crafts section. A gymnasium and pool were completed in the 1970s. Another fire destroyed part of the Mathematics section in 1990.[4] A $450,000 upgrade of the school's administration facilities was completed in 1997 as part of the Court government's schools program.[5] A major redevelopment of the senior school, middle school and science quadrangles was completed in 2010.[6] In 2015, Melville made the adjustment to add year 7's (aged 12–13) into the cohort. This was due to new legislation that was put into place in Western Australia. In 2017, a renovation to the school's student services facilities was completed. Catchment areaAs defined by the School Education Act 1999, the catchment area for Melville Senior High School covers the entire suburbs of Attadale, Melville and Willagee, and parts of the suburbs of Alfred Cove, Myaree and Kardinya.[7] The school also shares areas of the suburbs of Bicton, East Fremantle, Fremantle and Palmyra with South Fremantle Senior High School and John Curtin College of the Arts; the suburb of North Fremantle with South Fremantle Senior High School, John Curtin College of the Arts and Shenton College; areas of the suburbs of Murdoch and Winthrop with Applecross Senior High School; and areas of the suburb of North Lake with Hamilton Senior High School. ProgramsMelville operates specialist programs in the areas of netball, aviation, Graphic Design and Media (GDM) and the government selected gifted and talented education (GATE). These programs are open to students outside of the catchment area. The school also hosts an Intensive English Centre (IEC) and International Fee-paying Student (IFPS) program, with 19% of students having a language background other than English. These programs are also open to students outside of the catchment area. Notable alumniNotable people who have attended Melville Senior High School include:
