Welcome to our website...
Dakabin State School was established in 1992 and is located on Sheaves Road, Kallangur on the north outskirts of the “old” Pine Shire. Parks, sports clubs, soccer fields, shopping centre, and Dakabin State High School are in close proximity to the school.
Around 550 students attend the school from Prep to Year Seven. Another 55 children have their special educational needs catered for in our Special Education Unit.
Dakabin State School continues to be the centre of great educational opportunities for
the children of the district. The school has modern facilities and is set in a spacious and attractive environment. We
continue to upgrade and enhance our facilities whenever possible.
The school prides itself on the motto “Together We Achieve” and we work hard to ensure that the community has the
opportunity to participate in and celebrate the learning journeys of the children.
At Dakabin, a wide range of curriculum and extra-curricular activities are offered. We encourage students to participate,
demonstrate sound work and behaviour ethics and to enjoy school life. Parents and caregivers are encouraged to become involved to individual comfort levels, whether it be as a classroom
volunteer or a P&C member.

Welcome Back
Welcome Back to Dakabin School in 2012. Our year has started off beautifully inside the classroom, the weather maybe
a little inclement but the students and teachers are handling this very well. It has meant that we have had wet lunch time
arrangements in place and students have played indoors. On behalf of the school community, I would like to welcome
our many new families. It was wonderful to see so many happy students and parents in this first week.

The fete will be a fun family day bringing the Dakabin community together to celebrate the
school’s 20th Anniversary.
If you are aware of a business who may be in a position to assist us with sponsorship or
donations, it would be appreciated if you could let us know. Sponsorship can be in the form
of both monetary donations or in-kind products used by our stalls. Every little bit helps!
