Story

Moranbah East State School has a whole school focus on achievement and success in academic, sporting, arts and cultural programs.

At Moranbah East State School we are extremely passionate about celebrating the successes of our young people and our staff. Our expectations are clear:
• Teachers will be explicit with their teaching and ensuring every child in every classroom feels safe and is learning every day.
• There is an unrelenting focus on student improvement.
• We are all committed to know each student as an individual. Where they’ve come from, where they are today and where or what they want to be in the future. We pride ourselves on knowing the whole child, rather than just the student.
• Every child is unique and has something to contribute to our school and community. For some students their skill or talent is immediately apparent, for others it takes a little time to be revealed. We look forward to working with staff and parents to nurture and showcase their talents.
• Personal and professional values are extremely important. Moranbah East State School staff acknowledges that education is as much about building character as it is about equipping students with specific skills to be a well-rounded citizen.

Parental support is a vital element of any school’s identity, and we are fortunate to enjoy a strong and close working relationship with the community. Parent assistance and involvement is welcomed in many ways – ready readers program, changing reading books, support in the tuckshop, library or classroom is always appreciated. We have an active Parents & Citizens’ Association which aims to forge links between parents and the school, with consequent benefits to Moranbah East State School students. All parents are urged to support the P&C.

This is our school – exceptional staff, wonderful students, dedicated parents and a supportive community.

We invite you to be a part of it.
