The proud 138 year history of the school shows a transition from a remote British colonial backblock to a modern and vibrant community school on a hillside in a picturesque location less than an hour away from the centre of Brisbane. Obviously there are big changes from the early days of the school but the friendly country atmosphere of the school and sense of community are things we value and strive to retain.
The past few years have seen a period of growth and change for Dayboro State School. Our school benefitted from the Federal Government's economic stimulus package Building the Education Revolution with 2.7 million spent on new buildings and updating classrooms. A new library and hall, opened in 2010, have provided wonderful additions to our school facilities. The effort of our P & C has resulted in air conditioning in all classrooms and by the end of 2012 all classrooms will have interactive whiteboards.
The school motto "Cultivating Knowledge" echoes our rural and agricultural roots. It is as fitting today as in the past as the staff at Dayboro strive to develop a thirst for learning that grows within each child. Our school benefits from a highly enthusiastic and skilled staff, supportive community and fabulous students. There is a high level of pride in Dayboro reflected in our standards of academic and sporting performance, behaviour and active citizenship.
