Bajool SS, established in 1888, is 40km south of Rockhampton. Our motto is 'Learning to Live and Living to Learn'. We follow this by providing a rich and inclusive curriculum, relevant to the real world, in a safe environment where students reach their potential as lifelong, independent learners. High standards in numeracy and literacy are a key goal of the school and are supported by a value- based, student-centred approach. All students have access to learning support programs and enrichment opportunities. Bajool SS boasts a swimming pool, multi-purpose court and a well equipped sport and fitness program. Two classes, an Early Education Centre and a Middle Class, exist at the school. Both have high teacher/student ratios and modern resources, including interactive whiteboards, computers, cameras and an increasing number of digital resources. The school also supports a community playgroup. Our Japanese program starts at an early age and is supported by regular Prep to year 7 immersion days with Japanese students from CQ University. All students participate in cultural events from eisteddfods to staged dance and drama productions. A school chaplain supports the school community.
