Melrose High School is a government school located in the Canberra suburb of Pearce. It serves years 7 through to 10. The school's name is taken from an old property that was located in the Woden area, which in turn was named after the town called Melrose in Scotland.[2] The school was opened on 27 January 1970 and had its 50th anniversary in 2020. Melrose High School serves 823 students (as of 2023).[3] The school has a number of outdoor sporting facilities such as a large oval, a mountain bike track, and tennis and netball courts. It also has a synthetic soccer pitch.
