Lambton High School

Lambton High School is a government-funded co-educational comprehensive secondary school, located in the suburb of Lambton in Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, operated by the New South Wales Department of Education.

The school intake catchment is provided by Lambton Public, New Lambton Public and Wallsend South Public schools. In 2024 the enrolment was 1,159 students.

The school badge features the school colours, alternating blue and orange stripes which fill the shield. The ribbon below the shield states the school motto "Light The Way".

Initially the Lambton High School site was earmarked to be the location of East Lambton Public School, however with increased demand for secondary schools in the area the Department of Education decided to change its proposed use. On 26 May 1972 approval was granted for the establishment of a High school at Young and Womboin Roads, Lambton to be known as Lambton High School, the land was then changed in name from East Lambton Public School to Lambton High School. Lambton High opened its doors in 1974 and was a merge of Newcastle Hill Boys High School and Hamilton Girls High School.

The school holds positions in events such as basketball, netball and waterpolo.

In 1995, the school introduced an annual event called “Green Day,” focused on environmental themes. Students and staff typically wear green clothing, and the day includes activities such as a concert, student and staff performances, competitions, and a costume contest.

On 29 September 2008, the Federal Cabinet (including Prime Minister Kevin Rudd) attended Lambton High School as part of the Australian Government Community Cabinet Program.
