History
The move towards a merger was made in 2009 with a decision being made to regenerate City of Maroondah's secondary education. A merger was planned between Maroondah and Croydon Secondary Colleges. Despite poor community feedback around the merger, plans and a site study were completed to build a new school on the Maroondah site. The project was not funded in the 2010/2011 Victorian State Budget.
Despite the projects funding approval Croydon Secondary College and Maroondah Secondary College ceased operations at the end of the 2011 school year. They merged under the temporary name 'Croydon-Maroondah Secondary College' for the start of the 2012 school year and continued operating at their respective campuses.
The merger brought together Croydon Secondary College, Maroondah Secondary College and the then closed Parkwood Secondary College.
Melba Secondary College was then officially established with the Victorian Department of Education in January 2013.
