History

The establishment of the Inaburra School can be credited to the Menai Baptist Church who originally wished to establish a Christian school in Menai. The church identified a need for a Christian school in the area due to its rapidly growing population and the lack of a Public High School.

A portable building was erected on the Billa Road site for the use of the preschool and church in 1980, and in 1982 Inaburra officially commenced as a secondary school in temporary accommodation at the Christian Education Center at Gymea Baptist Church.

The name 'Inaburra' was chosen as it is an Aboriginal word meaning 'dream'.

Curriculum

Inaburra School is a registered and accredited school, teaching the NSW Board of Studies Curriculum from Kindergarten to Year 12. Students undertake all NAPLAN tests, sit for the School Certificate Examinations in Year 10 and the Higher School Certificate in Year 12.

Inaburra has three sections:

  • The Junior School (Kindergarten to Year 6. Year 6 is a transition year, with some Middle School lessons)
  • The Middle School (Year 7 to Year 9)
  • The Senior School (Year 10 to Year 12).
  • Middle School & Senior School are together, but are both separated on the Inaburra Campus from the Junior School.

    Trivia

    The Inaburra Middle School boys' uniform was worn by Simon Hall, a member of the Australian comedy trio Tripod during a skit on the Australian comedy show SkitHOUSE.
