Hamilton Senior High School also often referred to as Hamilton Hill Senior High School is a public co-educational high school in Western Australia. The school is located on Purvis Street in the suburb of Hamilton Hill.
The school was established in 1962[1] and caters for students in Year 8 to 12.
The number of student enrolments have remained relatively stable over the last five years. The school enrolled 696 students in 2007, then 675 in 2008, to 711 in 2009, then fell to 622 in 2010 and to 580 in 2011. The fall in student numbers from 2010 is a result of the enrolment age changing for students entering high school in Western Australia.
The school suffered an arson attack in 2010 when a metal shed was set alight causing $100,000 in damage.[2]
