Maroubra Bay High School is a closed high school in the south-eastern Sydney suburb of Maroubra. The school opened in 1955 as a junior boys school, and closed in 1990. The closed site was briefly used as a location site for the television series Heartbreak High.[http://www.heartbreak-high.com/crewinterview_chris.htm Backstage]. Roache, C.

The school was originally opened as South Sydney Boys Junior High School but was upgraded to be South Sydney Boys High School in 1957. A further decision to make the school co-educational and transfer the school name to the Junior Technical High School also in Maroubra led to the name change to Maroubra Bay High School from January 1959.{{cite web|title=South Sydney Boys' Junior High School (1) (1955-1956) South Sydney Boys' High School (1) (1957- 1958) Maroubra Bay High School 1959 - 1990|url=https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/agency/4079|website=Agency Records|publisher=NSW State Archives and Records|accessdate=28 March 2018}}
