History


Blackbutt Provisional School opened on 20 January 1896 under teacher Rosa Bella Ryan. On 1 January 1909, it became Blackbutt State School. The school was on a 6-acre-1-rood (2.5 ha) site at 97 Blackbutt Crows Nest Road in present-day Blackbutt South (south-east corner of Haynes Kite Millar Road, 26.9011°S 152.0994°E / -26.9011; 152.0994 (Blackbutt State School (original site))). In 1912, school daily attendance was between 60 and 70 students, leading to a petition from parents to build a new school in a more central location. In January 1914, the school relocated to its current larger site in Blackbutt.
On 1 February 2018, Blackbutt South's postcode changed from 4306 to 4314.
