St Paul's College, formerly St Paul's Technical College and St Paul's Technical School, was a Catholic boys school in Ballarat.
History
In 1948, the Bishop of Ballarat, James O'Collins established St Paul's Technical College, inviting the Christian Brothers to continue their work for boys through the provision of technical education.
In 1960, Alice Fanning bequeathed property in
Mt Clear to the Sisters of Mercy. In 1967 the land was developed for a senior school for girls from
Sacred Heart College, named St Martin's in the Pines. The school became co-educational in 1988, with many boys in the senior years of St Paul's attending St Martin's in the Pines.
In 1987, the school moved from Lydiard Street's Ludbrook House to the former

In 1995, the College amalgamated with Sacred Heart College and St Martin's in the Pines to form
Damascus College Ballarat.
