Warrnambool College is a government high school (years 7–12) in the regional town of Warrnambool in south-west Victoria, Australia.[1]

The school now known as Warrnambool College started out in 1907 as Warrnambool Agricultural High School.[2] After a number of changes, the school opened as Warrnambool College in 1995 after the merger of Warrnambool Secondary College and Warrnambool North Secondary College.

Warrnambool College consists of two campuses. The main campus, which comprises the majority of the school community, is located in an extensive set of school buildings on Grafton Road, near the Warrnambool racecourse. The second campus, called the WAVE school, is an alternative educational setting for students who have had difficulty fitting into mainstream education. It is located in East Warrnambool.
