Moorooka State School, State school in Moorooka, Australia.

Moorooka State School occupies a 5.1-hectare site with mature trees, multiple classroom buildings, and extensive outdoor play spaces at Sherley Street.

The Department of Public Works designed the school in 1928, opening with 139 students and six teachers in January 1929 to serve the growing population.

The school buildings represent Queensland educational architecture through different periods, from timber-framed structures to post-war modernist designs with climate-responsive elements.

The main building contains five classrooms connected by folding partitions that transform into an assembly hall when opened.

During World War II, the United States Army temporarily occupied the school premises before regular classes resumed in mid-1942.
