Christian Brothers College, Burwood
School in Burwood, New South Wales, Australia
Christian Brothers College, Burwood (CBC Burwood ) was a Catholic high school located in Burwood , Sydney Australia .
The school was founded in 1909. It was announced on 25 March 2008 that the school would close at the end of 2009, due to a decline in enrolment arising from a change in demographics in the suburbs surrounding the school.[ 1] At closing, it taught boys from Year 7 to Year 10.
The school chapel, the school grotto, the lower yard classrooms, and the old wall ball court were demolished, though the brothers' house and other buildings were left intact.
