Location
Thallon State School is a small dynamic two-teacher rural primary school situated 78 kilometres south of St George in the Balonne Cluster. Thallon State School shares a long-standing partnership and many shared activities with the townships of Thallon and Daymar, surrounding properties and the border community of Mungindi. It also has strong relationships with its cluster of schools including Bollon, Hebel, Dirranbandi, Begonia and St George. The collegiality of the cluster leads to many and varied opportunities for Thallon students.
The students of this wheat/sheep/cattle/cotton community come from varied socio-economic backgrounds and cultures and there is a small number of students with an indigenous background. The school has an enrolment of approximately 20 children from Kindy to Year 6 and is keenly supported by an active and interested parent community.
