Junction Park State School, Heritage-listed state school in Annerley, Australia
Located on Waldheim Street, Junction Park State School features a two-story brick building with classical architectural elements and extensive educational facilities spread across its grounds.
Originally established as Thompson Estate State School in 1891, the institution changed its name to Junction Park State School in 1892 to serve the growing suburban population.
The school stands on traditional lands of the Turrbal and Jagera people, marking the transition from farming territory to suburban development in the late 19th century.
The educational complex includes two swimming pools constructed in 1910 and 1929, with the latter being the first pool built at a Queensland state school.
During World War II, the school grounds contained trenches for student protection during potential air raids, reaching peak enrollment of 1,477 students in 1947.
