Former Endeavour Hills Secondary College Site
Now-demolished Endeavour Hills Secondary College located on Amalfi Drive, bordered by the Monash Freeway and Power Road.
The school opened in 1969 as Doveton North Technical School which was near Doveton High School when there were separate school systems for technical secondary education in Victoria. In 1974 it changed name to Endeavour Hills Secondary College with the new suburb taking shape between the school and Heatherton Road - by then separated from Doveton by the new Mulgrave (now Monash) Freeway.
With the phasing out of separate technical schools in the late 1980's it was renamed Endeavour Hills Secondary College in 1990. the nearby Doveton High School was renamed Joseph Banks Secondary College before closure a few years later under the Kennett Government.
For a period in the 1990s and 2000's it was known as Eumemmerring College - Endeavour Hills Campus.
In recent years enrollments were in steady decline as sudents preferred larger and newer schools nearby. It was closed at the end of the 2012 school year with only 137 students enrolled during that year.
The school buildings stood until demolition in 2015 - by then they had succumb to squatters and vandalism, including a major fire which destroyed the hall near Power Road.
