Salesian College (Brooklyn Park)

Salesian College was a Roman Catholic school in Brooklyn Park, a western suburb of Adelaide, South Australia. It operated as a boys-only school from 1954. Girls were also enrolled from 1978, until the school's closure in 1996.[1] The boarding section of the school closed in 1984. It had been St John's Boys Town since 1941, an orphanage for boys aged over 12 years.[2]

The main buildings were sold to the Adelaide College of Divinity which moved in to the site from 1997.
