Standing on Story Street, right across from the Royal Melbourne Hospital, you can’t miss it: The University High School Elizabeth Blackburn School of Sciences, a beacon of academic excellence in the heart of Melbourne. Originally opened as the University Practising School in 1910, this school has been a hub of learning and innovation for over a century. While the school itself has a rich history, its namesake, Elizabeth Blackburn, is a Nobel Prize winner who not only studied here, but also returned to open the Elizabeth Blackburn School of Sciences in 2012. This dedicated science program allows students to delve into cutting-edge science, with state-of-the-art labs and a strong focus on STEM subjects. They even have a Gene Technology Access Centre, which allows students to participate in real research projects alongside scientists! While other students may be working on their VCE, the students here get to learn from the very best and experience the thrill of discovery.
