Two Mile State School is a small school offering year levels from Prep-7. We are located just on the outskirts of Gympie but still a stone's throw from the CBD. We draw students from the surrounding area and from all over Gympie. People are attracted by our reputation and good standing in the community. At Two Mile we provide high-quality education that makes a positive difference to the lives of young Queenslanders. Our core values focus on being respectful, being responsible and being safe. We achieve these through the support of our community in insisting on these values in all aspects of students' academic, social and individual development. In doing so, we support our students through careful monitoring of their growth and data that we collect through internal, systemic and national sources. We respond to such data by designing teaching and learning programs that are interesting and stimulating. In conjunction with this, we design and implement intervention and extension at all levels. This includes working one on one with students, or in small groups. We are assisted in this process by having small class sizes and deploying specialist and support staff on a needs basis, as well as maximising teacher aide time available in classrooms. Our students also participate in a range of off-campus activities to nurture their growth. We match these to individuals to ensure we are addressing their interests and needs and relating this to the broader community. Our results speak for themselves, in national testing, representation in sports and success in academic and arts competitions. We regularly have representation in local, zone and State sporting teams. In addition, we are champions in local competitions including maths team challenges, choir and others. We also nurture responsibility and active citizenship through our environmental management plan as we aim to reduce our ecological footprint. We are active recyclers and we promote engagement in the natural environment through gardening, maintenance of our fruit..
