From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Salesian College, Rupertswood, also known more simply as Salesian College, is a Roman Catholic, co-educational school located in Sunbury, Victoria, Australia.

It is located on the grounds of Rupertswood Mansion. Set up by the Salesian Society when the mansion and its grounds were sold to them in 1927, it was originally an all-boys boarding school. In the 1950's it began admitting day students as well as catering for boarders. After Sunbury grew in the 1980's the school began to welcome girls to the school and by 1997 it had become fully co-educational and stopped student boarding.
