St Bede’s College, Mentone, Victoria, Australia. Well, most of them are.

The book is ‘St. Bede’s College and its McCristal origins 1896-1982’ by Leo Gamble, published by St Bede’s in 1982.

St Bede’s is considered to be the successor school to an earlier one called Mentone College, often referred to as McCristal College after its founder and headmaster. St Bede’s started off using the same buildings as Mentone College, and a lot of Mentone College boys sent their sons to St Bede’s.
