In the instance of the Year 6 school camp to Canberra, all parent names are put into a bucket and a random draw occurs. We require 2 male and 2 female parent helpers for this trip.

Payment of School Fees

Fees for extra-curricular items are calculated on a cost recovery only basis and as such, the school budget cannot meet any shortfalls in funding. For more information, please read the 'No Pay, No Go' guidelines.

Highly Capable Student Program

As a Qld Academies Partnership School, Moggill is able to offer workshops and programs both during and after school time, to extend our academically capable students. 

Through our extensive school music program and participation in the combined schools’ Creative Generation performances, we provide opportunities to extend and develop the skills of our artistically talented students. 

In-school clubs like Opti-Minds, STEM Club and Readers Club, challenge our students to use and extend their thinking and problem solving skills.

Moggill State School teachers are constantly looking for engaging and exciting opportunities to extend the breadth and depth of learning experiences for our students, encouraging them to do and be their best.
