Welcome to Walloon State School.

Walloon State School is semi-rural school located about 15mins west of Ipswich with an enrolment of 235. Open since 1877, our school has a proud history of providing modern education in a heritage setting. This has been achieved through a dedication to continuous improvement, helping our students to be responsible citizens and by forging deep roots into our community.

In 2022 our Explicit Improvement Agenda is:

  • Reading, Writing and Spelling through the curriculum
  • Knowing our students

These focus areas are complimented by our quality curriculum offerings, the professionalism of our staff members and our drive to enable our people's hearts and minds to achieve their hopes and dreams.

We work collaboratively as a team where we all hold the core belief that we can help every student improve. Student improvement is at the heart of what we do. We believe that children need to be children therefore we encourage risky play and nature play. We manage risk, we don't overt it and we want students and staff to move from the comfort zone to the courage zone. Our mantra is that We work hard and We play hard! Our 10 School Values underpin all that we do.

Walloon State School has many offerings that make us unique, setting us apart from others. We have 3 deliberate breaks from learning per day. Around our expansive grounds; students can play in our artificial creeks, sand lagoon, timber adventure playground, low ropes course, scooter track and nature play zone (constructing with sticks). Walloon State School also offers specialty programs such as High Ropes, Playgroup and the new to 2023, Athlete Development Program (ADP)​
