History
Script error: No such module "Unsubst". The establishment of the Inaburra School can be credited to the Menai Baptist Church who originally wished to establish a Christian school in Menai. The church identified a need for a Christian school in the area due to its rapidly growing population and the lack of a government high school.
A portable building was erected close to the Billa Road site for the use of the preschool and church in 1980, and in 1982 Inaburra officially commenced as a secondary school in temporary accommodation at the Christian Education Center at Gymea Baptist Church.
The name 'Inaburra' was chosen as it Wiradjuri word meaning 'dream'.[1] It also uses Aboriginal names for the clubs and sports colours.
