Overnewton Anglican Community College (more commonly known as 'OACC') is an independent, co-educational, day school, founded in 1987.

The College has two campuses, the Canowindra Campus is located in Taylors Lakes, Melbourne, Australia and the Yirramboi Campus is located in Keilor.[1] Prep to Year 4 and Year 9 is only available at the Canowindra Campus in Taylors Lakes Campus and Year 5 to Year 8 and Year 10 to 12 are only available at the Yirramboi Campus in Keilor.
