Why is Balwyn High School in such high demand, people moving to be close by?

I am looking for schools in and around Balwyn and everyone says you need to look at Balwyn High but apparently it is a really tight school zone to get into.

Can anyone give me some insights on what makes this school so great?

I was at the school recently for a kids basketball game and was just blown away by the facilities. The sporting facilities were as good as anything I have seen in the Private Schools. It really did have the feel of a $20,000 per year private school, all in beautiful Balwyn.

Balwyn is located in on the premium suburbs in Melbourne, like it's neighbour's to the west - Kew, Hawthorn, etc. As such, the facilities for Balwyn High public school are first class - _exactly_ like Jason said (in this thread). Private school fees in these suburbs are very expensive ... so why pay private school fees when you can have a first class public school option?

Another example of an excellent public school is Kew High.

Lovely suburbs, lovely facilities.
