St Margaret’s Mysteries - Boys at St Margaret's

When we opened the Prep Centre in 1994, boys were allowed to attend.

At the time, it was thought to be quite an event, having boys at an all-girls school! But boys have always been a part of our school, almost since its inception. We have records from 1907 all the way to 1960 showing boys were enrolled in the kindergarten or primary school.

Do you have a great-grandfather, grandfather, father, uncle or any male relative who attended St Margaret’s? If so, I would love to hear from you. You can email me at msurtees@stmargarets.qld.edu.au or phone 3862 0816.
