Sunnybank State High School

Sunnybank State High School is a public, co-educational, high school, located in the Brisbane suburb of Sunnybank, in Queensland, Australia. It is administered by the Department of Education, with an enrolment of 666 students and a teaching staff of 61, as of 2023. The school serves students from Year 7 to Year 12.

History

The school opened 29 January 1963, with an enrolment of 121 students. This figure grew to over 1,300 in the 1970s.

In October 2020, a contractor released asbestos particles after penetrating the ceiling and walls of a classroom to install air-conditioning. On 24 November, a Workplace Health and Safety complaint was filed about the matter by a member of the public. Seven weeks after the incident, on 27 November, the school closed four contaminated blocks and sent a letter to parents informing them of the incident. The affected classrooms were ready for use in time for the beginning of the 2021 school year.
