Welcome to Wellers Hill State School
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Wellers Hill State School, a learning community where every child is valued, supported, and inspired to achieve their personal best. Our vision, “Everyone Connected, Everyone Striving to Achieve, Everywhere Learning," reflects our commitment to excellence, inclusivity, and lifelong learning for every student.
Our School and Community
Nestled in the beautiful, leafy suburb of Tarragindi, Wellers Hill State School is often described by visitors and families as an oasis in the heart of Brisbane. Since opening our doors in 1926, we have built a proud tradition of academic achievement, community connection, and a strong values-based culture. These foundations continue to guide us as we prepare students for success in a rapidly changing world.
Excellence in Learning
Our school offers a dynamic and progressive curriculum that challenges and engages learners across all year levels. We are dedicated to providing a balanced education that not only focuses on academic growth but also nurtures creativity, critical thinking, and social responsibility. Through explicit teaching, innovative practices, and high expectations, we strive to ensure that every student reaches their full potential.
A Rich and Diverse Learning Environment
Wellers Hill State School is proud to offer a range of specialist programs and opportunities beyond the classroom. Our students thrive in outstanding programs in the Arts, Instrumental Music, and Sport, complemented by a variety of extracurricular activities that enrich their school experience. We also provide an accredited School Age Care service to support families within our community.
Japanese Bilingual Program
A distinctive feature of our school is our Japanese Bilingual Program, which is unique within Queensland. Students have the opportunity to learn through two pathways:
- Australian Curriculum (English)
- Australian Curriculum (Japanese)
With the exception of Prep, each year level includes multiple classes in both pathways. This program not only develops bilingual proficiency but also fosters intercultural understanding and global citizenship—skills essential for the future.

Wellers Hill State School has a long-standing and well-deserved reputation for academic excellence. This achievement is a result of dedicated teachers, strong partnerships with families, and a community that values education. Our focus is on creating an environment where every student feels connected, supported, and motivated to achieve.

Choosing the right school is an important decision, and we are proud to offer an environment where students are challenged, cared for, and celebrated for their achievements.
