Mount Carmel College is a Roman Catholic co-educational secondary school located in the Adelaide suburb of Rosewater, South Australia. It was established in 1909 by the Sisters of St Joseph, at the primary school location. Mount Carmel Girls School was co-located with the primary school. The Newcastle Street site was Marist Boys Alberton, also called Mount Carmel Boys School and it was a all-boys school until December 1966. In February 1967 the Sisters of St Joseph transferred the all-girls school from the Pennington Terrace School to the present site of Mount Carmel College and, in 1983, the school became a co-educational institution.
