⭐ Brief history of Kingston College (KC)

The school, Kingston College, was created primarily to provide poor black boys, who otherwise would not have had the opportunity, with a secondary education.

It occupies two campuses: The Melbourne campus on Upper Elletson Road and the larger Clovelly Park Campus on North Street.

K.C., as the school became known, admitted any boy, black or not, born in wedlock or not, who could satisfy the entrance requirements and pay the affordable fees.

Kingston College began at 114 ¾ East (corner of East St. and North St.)

The school was declared open on April 16, 1925 with forty-nine students.

Today the school is located at 2A North Street, Kingston.

In 1963 the Melbourne Campus (13 Upper Elleston Road, Kingston C.S.O.) was purchased from the Melbourne Cricket Club.

The Melbourne Campus (Little KC) is now home to 7th, 8th, 9th Grade (1st, 2nd and 3rd Form).

The school's color, purple was chosen because it is the color worn by Christian Bishops, also used by the Greeks to honor their Olympic champions and the color of the leading Empire in History – Rome.

The crest also bears the colors purple and white.

The pineapple symbolizes the field of labor and fruitfulness, The dog, the animal of loyalty, fidelity and watchfulness.

The book represents the Bible and academics.
