Yeronga State School.

What Yeronga State School. does

Yeronga State School is a Queensland government primary school operated by the State of Queensland (Department of Education), delivering Prep to Year 6 education to approximately 780 students within its designated Yeronga catchment and an attached special education precinct, the Yeerongpilly Early Childhood Development Program (YECDP), serving around 100 pre-prep children with hearing loss. Established in 1871 as Boggo School and renamed in 1886, the school sits on a 4-hectare heritage-listed campus in inner-city Yeronga (122 Park Road, Brisbane QLD 4104) with distinct Junior and Senior School precincts, sporting fields, nature playgrounds, and specialist learning hubs covering visual arts, music, and STEM. The school's student body represents approximately 35 countries, and academic programming follows Australian Curriculum Version 9.0 organised around conceptual themes of Belonging, Connection, Discovery, and Contribution.

The core product is the standard Australian primary curriculum augmented by specialist programs in Health and Physical Education, Music (instrumental string, band, junior/senior/chamber choirs), Visual Arts, and Spanish, plus support services including Literacy/Numeracy support, English as an Additional Language or Dialect (EALD), and a Gifted Learners Enrichment Program. The technology layer is non-proprietary: a SharePoint-hosted public website (yerongass.eq.edu.au) with no APIs, supported by third-party SaaS integrations including Flexischools for online ordering and SchoolzinePlus for newsletter distribution. There is no proprietary technology, no software product, and no AI/ML capability.

The business model is government-funded public education with no tuition fees for in-catchment Australian students. Funding flows primarily from Queensland Department of Education allocations, supplemented by modest fee-based ancillary services: parent-paid ICAS assessments (Years 2–6), a P&C-operated tuckshop and uniform shop (with Flexischools online ordering), and externally delivered Out of School Hours Care via the Jabiru community organisation. Go-to-market is community-led via the school website, Facebook page, fortnightly newsletters, Prep information sessions, and Parent-Rep Program outreach. The school is led by Principal Eunice Webb and is not a commercial entity, not publicly traded, and does not raise private capital.
