Boolite is a locality near Warracknabeal in Victoria, Australia.

The locality had a hall that was used for dancing, fairs and concerts.[3] There was a local school which had an annual picnic, and flower day. Furthermore, the school was able to raise significant funds for the war effort during the Great War.[4] Boolite competed for the Emmett trophy in Australian football against other towns in the area.[5] The locality also participated in cricket.[6] Today, little of Boolite remains.
