At Marburg State School, our mission is to offer quality education in order to equip all students for the future, thus enabling them to contribute socially and economically in a culturally vibrant society. Marburg State School is situated approximately 20 km from Ipswich, Queensland, on approximately 4 hectares of land. The school services students mainly from the immediate Marburg area, with some families driving a short distance from neighbouring suburbs to attend our school. Presently we have two composite classes: a Prep to 3 class and a 4 to 7 class. (Due to an increase in enrolments, our 4 to7 class is supported with an extra teacher who works 5 days per fortnight.) Our teaching staff consists of a teaching principal, 1 full time teacher, part-time teacher, principal relief teacher, 4 teacher aides, an administration officer, a school cleaner and a casual groundsperson. Specialist teachers also service our school and consist of a physical education teacher, a music teacher and a German teacher. Ramps and purpose-built toilets provide access for students with physical disabilities. Individual education programs are developed as necessary. Staff strive to support the ideals of social justice within a supportive school environment.
