BMSS 150th Celebrations
Buderim Mountain State School has been an icon of the Buderim community since 1875, which means 2025 will see our 150th year of servicing the community and its diverse demographic of staff, students and community members! With a new $10M+ school hall and well over 1000 students in 2024, the school has grown and evolved immensely; let's celebrate this historical site, this significant moment in time and the journey our school has taken over the past one-and-a-half centuries.
We will be hosting several events throughout 2025, including the main 150th celebration event on the weekend of June 21st. We expect that over 2000 people will attend the school over the weekend to join in the festivities.
