History

The first school in the Centenary area was the Seventeen Mile Rocks Provisional School, which opened in 1871.[ citation needed ] After the opening of the Centenary suburbs to residential development, Jindalee State School was opened on Burrendah Road in 1966, with an original enrolment of 64.[ citation needed ] Since then the school has grown larger, with the opening of more blocks over the years, culminating with the opening of the school hall in 1998 and the renovation of a new block in front of the school hall, called H8 and H7 in 2006 and the Kirinari block behind the hall in 2011.[ citation needed ]
