Windsor State School, Heritage-listed state school in Windsor, Queensland.
Windsor State School is a heritage-listed primary school in Windsor with large two-story brick buildings dating from its early construction period. The campus spreads across multiple areas with classrooms, sports courts, and recreational facilities for students.
The school was established in 1865 and relocated to its current site in 1916 to serve the area's growing population. The buildings were constructed during this move according to modern teaching standards with spacious rooms and proper ventilation.
The school bears its location's name and draws students from across the surrounding area who come here daily to learn and play. It remains embedded in the local community and shapes the everyday life of many families in Windsor.
The site is easy to navigate and has plenty of open space to explore, with different areas for age groups clearly marked out. There are numerous outdoor seating areas where you can observe the grounds and architecture at a comfortable pace.
During World War II, the school grounds were repurposed as a safety measure, with playing areas converted into trenches. This transformation shows how the war seeped into the everyday life of the local community.
