Old Tallegalla School (2 Tallegalla Two Tree Hill Road, Tallegalla) was established in 1879. It is one of the few surviving elements of what was once a larger community. The property features traditional classrooms, a teacher's staff room, and an annex for educational activities. For about 115 years, the school was both an educational institution and a central hub for local gatherings.

In 1998, the Queensland Government granted trusteeship of the property to Ipswich City Council. This means that council is responsible for the management of the property on behalf of Queensland Government. As part of this, the property must be managed in accordance with the Queensland Heritage Register and all statutory influences.

Since taking trusteeship, the property has been used by various community groups and general public for events. Australian Crawl (Goodna) Pty Ltd also held trustee permits from September 2013 to August 2019. After decades of use, the buildings and facilities need significant rehabilitation and refurbishment to ensure it meets existing standards and maintenance obligations.

Council is now considering whether to:

• surrender 2 Tallegalla Two Tree Hill Road to the Queensland Government, or
• rehabilitate the buildings and facilities and enter into a lease with a suitable organisation.

Share your thoughts to help inform this decision.
