Collie Senior High School is a comprehensive public high school located in Collie, a regional centre 213 kilometres (132 mi) south of Perth, Western Australia.
The first school in Collie was opened in 1899, when the name of the town was still Coalville. The initial enrolment was for 55 students. The enrolment doubled the next year and a new school house was built. From 1924 the school was known as Collie District High School, and became a Senior High School in 1952.[1]
In 1900 the school had an enrolment of 110 and by 2009 had an enrolment of 587 students between Year 8 and Year 12, 30 (5%) of whom were Aboriginal.
