Babinda P-12 State School

Babinda P-12 State School Babinda SS strives to develop well-educated and active citizens from P-12. Our range of subjects caters more than adequately for both these groups of students.

Traditional learning opportunities in academic and sporting areas are complemented with a broader range of artistic activities and subjects. Students are encouraged to take responsibility for their learning throughout their schooling. We offer a range of core subjects that are complemented by a significant number of elective subjects. Students can choose a pathway - either OP eligible or Vocational, that best suits their learning needs and aspirations. Our school boasts possibly the best and newest Home Economics and Manual Arts building in the local area. We have had a recent technology upgrade and students have access to both a wide range of hardware and software to complement their learning. We expect students to adhere to our Code of School Behaviour which sets out clearly the behaviours expected of students. It has a strong focus on positive behaviours and student responsibility and ownership of their behaviour. Our bottom line for behaviour is:

"We are responsible for our own behaviour and learning and we respect all members of the school community"

Babinda has a proud tradition of offering a caring service for its community. We welcome parents and other community members to take part in the education process. Working together in the best interest of our system of our students for the best possible outcomes produces a happy working environment for the whole community.

💛 R U OK? Day – Thursday 10 September 💛

This Thursday, Babinda State School will be recognising R U OK? Day – a reminder that a simple conversation can make a big difference.

Students are invited to wear yellow to help raise awareness and remind us all to check in on our mates and ask, “R U OK?” 💛

👕 Please note, this is not a traditional free dress day. Students can wear yellow clothing or accessories, or simply wear their normal school uniform if they don’t have anything yellow.

Let’s use the day as a reminder to look out for one another, check in with our friends and classmates, and remember that it’s always okay to start a conversation. 💛

Year 4 Camp - Boating. Year 4s had a blast out on the boats, bird watching and learning about the mangroves as well. One of the boats was lucky enough to catch a mud crab, so we had a mud crab talk. Did you know that one female crab can lay around 4 million eggs every year!!!!
