Moorebank High School (MHS) is a government-funded co-educational partially academically selective secondary day school, located in Chipping Norton, a suburb in the Liverpool district of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The school was located in Moorebank until suburb borders changed.

Established in 1971 and operated by the New South Wales Department of Education, the school enrols 1,046 students from Year 7 to Year 12 as of 2022. This is a comprehensive and partially selective high school.[2]

Facilities

In September 2022, Moorebank High School installed fingerprint scanners outside of toilets to combat vandalism. However, parents and students were outraged, raising concerns about privacy and data leaks. The school has since removed the scanners. But have since reinstalled them with new ones.[3] [4]
