Kolorer College

We built a new secondary school in Cobblebank. It opened in 2026, helping the growing local population get great education close to home.

In its first year of operation, Kolorer College opened to Year 7 students only. It will progress by year level thereafter.

Ciar Foster was appointed the first principal of the school.

The school was known by its interim name, Cobblebank Secondary School, during planning and design. Kolorer College was chosen as this new school’s name following community and Traditional Owner group consultation. Kolorer (pronounced koo-lorr) is a Wurundjeri Woi wurrung language word meaning lava flow.

For enrolment enquiries or to learn more about the school, please email kolorer.co@education.vic.gov.au.

Supported inclusion school

Kolorer College is a supported inclusion school. Supported inclusion schools (SIS) are different to specialist schools. They are local schools that have facilities to provide extra support for students with a disability. Specialised facilities in these schools may include sensory areas, accessible play spaces and wider corridors.
