We are located approximately 20 minutes north of Maryborough, Queensland. The school was established on the present site in 1884 when the Burrum Coal Mining Industry was at its prime. Our School Motto is 'Strive to Shine' and our three values are; Value our School, Value Yourself and Value Others. We are a caring, safe and friendly school where everyone is valued, supported and challenged.
We cater for all students from Prep to Year 6. We are an inclusive school that has a strong sense of belonging for students, staff and families. We have well-equipped classrooms, two large ovals, a multipurpose court, two shaded playgrounds and a school pool.
Our school is supported by an active P&C association that contributes to the wellbeing of our staff and students. The P&C actively contributes to the learning opportunities for all students.
Dedicated and caring staff work together with families and our commitment is for all students to Strive to Shine.
We welcome you to Howard State School.
