St Kevin's College is a private Catholic primary and secondary school for boys located in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The college has three campuses, two of which are in the suburb of Toorak, the third in Richmond. The school also has playing fields located behind Stockland Tooronga. The school formerly owned a campsite 'Silver Creek' in the town of Flowerdale which was completely destroyed by the Black Saturday bushfires.
St Kevin's was founded in 1918 by the Christian Brothers and is a member of the Associated Public Schools of Victoria. St Kevin's overlooks Gardiners Creek, a tributary that runs into the Yarra River, with Scotch College on the opposite side. The college has a long-standing tradition with the historic St. Patrick's Cathedral and is responsible for educating their choir boys.
The Archdiocese of Melbourne provides oversight of St Kevin's, and its administration is directed by Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA), and is a member of both the Associated Public Schools of Victoria (APS) and the International Boys' Schools Coalition (IBSC).
