Mitchelton was named from one of our early pioneering families. The Mitchell family, along with the Nicholsons, Keylars and Duncans were the main settlers in the area which was then a rich grazing and farming district.
The suburb is fast becoming popular with younger families due to its proximity to the city and easy access to the suburban rail an bus network. New housing developments are evident on land previously used for market gardens. These estates are within easy walking distance to the school.
The Australian Defence Force has also undertaken the development of a new housing estate adjacent to Enoggera Barracks, also in close proximity to the school.
Education services were first provided to the district in 1916 in the form of the Grovley School. In 1952, the Year 3-8 students moved to the present site of the school whilst the infants remained at the same location, renamed Mitchelton State Infant School.
Both Mitchelton schools combined in 1986 and were located on the present site at 47 Glen Retreat Road.
Mitchelton School has an outstanding 96-year historical commitment to educating students which is expressed both in terms of academic outcomes and the development of life-long learners. In 2016, we will celebrate our 100 year anniversary bringing together staff, students, parents and community members who have contributed to the fabric of Mitchelton State School over the last century.
I trust that within these pages, you will discover the essence of a Mitchelton State School education and its capacity to provide your children with the best preparation for their future.
A commitment to developing lifelong learners is at the heart of our purpose at Mitchelton State School. Each child is encouraged and supported to discover and fulfil their unique potential within an academic program that aims to develop a broad knowledge base, higher order thinking skills and dispositions that promote intelligent behaviour.
Our academic curriculum is complemented by a broad educational offering of cultural, sporting, personal development and service programs which the students are encouraged to explore widely. These pursuits are considered an equally important element of their overall growth, learning and socialisation, in addition to contributing to the many happy and enjoyable store of school memories we hope they will gather during their time at Mitchelton. As educators and lifelong learners ourselves, we aspire to a learning culture that is never complacent. We constantly review and develop our programs, practices and facilities, seeking that optimal blend of tradition and innovation.
Whilst you will find extensive information about Mitchelton State School's offerings on our website, I encourage you to visit the School, whether it be on Open Day or on a personalised tour with a member of our administration staff, in order to fully appreciate the warmth and vibrancy of our learning community, and how we can best serve the educational needs of your children.
