Magnetic Island State School celebrated their centenary last month, having opened as a provisional school in 1924.

By the 1920s, Nelly Bay was a well established community with thriving agricultural and tourism industries. In 1924 Nelly Bay residents pushed for a new school as they claimed there were at least twenty children available to attend in the area. They detailed that in order to attend the Magnetic Island School at Picnic Bay (est. 1913), Nelly Bay children had to walk ‘some miles over a mountain track that is at times a positive danger to negotiate’.

In 1925, there was a name change with original Magnetic Island School becoming Picnic Bay School and the newer school taking on the Magnetic Island School title. In 1928 the provisional school became a state school. Around the early 1970s, the Picnic Bay School and Horsehoe Bay School both closed. Magnetic Island State School is now the only primary school on the island, currently catering for around 124 students.

Today’s photo is of Mr Max Hooper, Deputy Chairman of the Townsville Port Authority, handing over paint to budding artists, Simon Grigg and Nonnie Rendell, of the Magnetic Island State School in 1989.

It is with great sadness that we said farewell to Annette last Thursday. She has been an integral part of our team for the past four years. We will miss her greatly, along with the vast knowledge and experience she brought to our work.
This is not goodbye, but simply bye for now.
We wish you all the best on your next adventure, Annette — and we’re sure we’ll see you around.

Perfect - what are you grateful for?

Let's start the day with a grateful heart. 🫶

Gratitude is being thankful for the good things in life, like a sunny park to eat your lunch in, a good book, or a warm cup of tea. ☕

This isn't about ignoring the struggles, which are real and varied, but rather focusing on the positives we often overlook.

Practising gratitude has plenty of benefits like:
💛 improving your self-esteem
💛 enhancing empathy
💛 reducing aggression
💛 improving your sleep.

Acts of gratitude, like sending a thank you note or writing down something you're grateful for each day, creates strong positive emotions and can also help build your mental resilience. 💪
