Geography

Cambroon is located on the Mary River.[3] It is on the Maleny-Kenilworth Road.[4]

History

Cambroon takes its name from the pastoral run of the same name, which was established in 1855 by J. D. MacTaggart.[5] The name of the pastoral run is believed to be the name of an Aboriginal leader at the time of first contact.[6]

In 1887, 16,000 acres (6,500 ha) of land were resumed from the Cambroon pastoral run for the establishment of small farms. The land was offered for selection on 17 April 1887.[7]

Residents began to lobby for a school in 1919.[8] Cambroon Provisional School opened on 5 February 1923 and became Cambroon State School on 1 December 1924.[9][10] The school closed in May 1944.[11][12] It was on a 5-acre (2.0 ha) site at 1038 Eastern Mary River Road (26°38′33″S 152°41′15″E / 26.64263°S 152.68739°E / -26.64263; 152.68739 (Cambroon State School (former))).[13][14][15] In 1949, tenders were called to remove the school building and re-erect it at Wamuran State School.[16]
