Since 1916, Darra State School continues to provide high-quality education to students from Darra and surrounding suburbs. Our school is small, diverse and harmonious. Staff and students know each other by name — no child is lost in the crowd. Our school is an extended family, and our students have a strong sense of belonging.
Our school motto is 'Steering a course together', where staff and students collaboratively work together to achieve high educational outcomes for our students. We are committed to our school vision — as individuals and as a community, we aim to become successful and inspire lifelong learners and global citizens.
Our staff is happy, caring and dedicated. Working collaboratively, they stay current in their professional knowledge, and apply this in their daily work. Our school team includes Teachers, Teacher Aides, a Guidance Officer, a Speech Language Pathologist, Inclusion Teachers, Chaplain, Administrative staff and the staff who care for our facilities.
Families are encouraged to be actively involved in school life and the development of their children. Families are always welcome at school.
At Darra State School, we inspire our students to develop a lifelong love of learning.
We look forward to welcoming you into the Darra State School Family.
Warm regards,
Jonas Shantz
