Bob Hawke College is a public high school in the state of Western Australia, Australia and situated in the suburb of Subiaco, Western Australia.[1] The school opened on 3 February 2020 with 250 Year 7 students, and is scheduled to expand to 1,500–2,000 students from Years 7 to 12 in 2025.[2][3]

The school integrates the playing surface of the former Subiaco Oval stadium, which was demolished in December 2019, into its campus.[4] The refurbished oval was open to students in May 2020, and to the general public the following month.[5]
