Overview[edit]

Calamvale Community College is a co-educational, independent state school established in 2002 in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.

Structure[edit]

The college is organised into two sub-schools each with its own principal and staff. The College Principal provides the over–arching leadership for the college. Each sub-school caters for a select range of grades; the junior campus caters for prep to year 6, and the secondary campus caters for years 7 to 12.

Campus[edit]

The college operates on a two sub-campus system, coinciding with the two sub-schools. The two campuses are situated adjacent to one another; with the junior campus encompassing the southern end of the main campus, while the secondary campus embodies the north.

Each sub-campus offers a variety of amenities, including both shared resources and those specific to either sub-school. Examples of shared facilities include: The Oval, Library, Basketball courts, and a hall. Both campuses possess Tuck shops (also known as canteens) as well as two large undercover areas.
