St Patrick's College, Goulburn was an independent, Roman Catholic, day and boarding school for boys located in Goulburn, New South Wales, Australia.

The college, founded by the Goulburn Catholic Diocese in 1874, had been operated by the Christian Brothers from 1897[1] until its closure. It was one of a number of schools founded or taken over by the Christian Brothers in Australia in the 1890s. It attended the initial meetings leading to the formation of Athletic Association of the Great Public Schools of New South Wales in 1892 but didn't ever take part in any of the association's activities. It is also a school which has a significant Rugby Union tradition.

The school ceased to exist in its present form in 2000 when it amalgamated with Marian College for girls in Goulburn to become Trinity Catholic College, Goulburn. The amalgamation was essentially due to declining enrolments, linked in part to Goulburn's decline in population and importance as a regional centre, a process which has been occurring gradually over the past century, particularly after the founding of Canberra in 1913. The respective schools in three different locations were then gradually consolidated on the old St. Patrick's campus.

The brothers continued to operate the boys' boarding residence but due to a lack of resources this facility was amalgamated with the girls' boarding school from North Goulburn at the old St. Patrick's campus in 2006. The responsibility for the boarding facilities transferred at this time from the brothers back to the now Archdiocese through the Catholic Education Office.[2] This ended 109 years of service by the Christian Brothers on the school site. The boarding facility was shut down entirely at the end of 2009,[3] completing 135 years of operation.

After the amalgamation, the teacher and professional historian Dr Bollen published a history of the college.[4]

Their reference in the address to his long connection with St. Patrick's College was one of which he was especially proud. He had devoted the fourteen best years of his life in that laborious but happy field of duty — home of plain living and high thinking — towards renewing, in this fair young land, the old traditions of the Church, towards enabling our ingenuous Catholic youth to take their proper place in public life to fit them, if God so willed it, for the services of the altar and the labours of the sacred ministry, or to compete in noble rivalry for the highest prizes offered to learning and virtue and industry and character by the free institutions of our country.

Every boy needs a hero, and I was lucky enough to find one among my high school teachers. His name was Jim Roxburgh, and he was a big, shaggy man, wide across the shoulders and heavily bearded. We all knew that he was a former Rugby International, had played for the Wallabies. But he wasn't a hero because he played a game, but because on those broad shoulders he carried a burden of pride, and anger, and good old fashioned humanity.
