TitleMoorina State SchoolDescriptionThe Moorina State School was located on the corner Moorina Road and Ralph Street Upper Caboolture. The Moorina State School which was situated almost 15km from Caboolture was moved across from Stoney Creek (Upper Burpengary Creek) after it closed in 1916. The Moorina School opened in 1918 and closed in 1954 when a bus run was instituted to Morayfield. The building was relocated to Coochin Creek which is east of Beerwah by Pumicestone Passage but did not operate for long. The building was sold and it was dismantled and incorporated into other buildings on Roy's Citrus Plantation. The teacher was Miss Ivy Girling.
