Memories will be stirred, friendships revisited and reminiscing enjoyed when the Darlington State School in the scenic Lost World Valley celebrates 125 years of teaching and learning this month. This quaint little school looks particularly special right now, with a beautiful jacaranda tree lending its purple hues to an already picturesque scene.

To mark this special occasion, a Community Market Day and Great Duck Race will be held at this historic school. Everyone will be greeted with a warm country welcome, with organizers being particularly keen to see as many past students, teachers and friends of the school as possible. A roll call of past students will take place during the event. A time capsule will also be opened, sure to bring back memories of days in the old schoolyard!



Goods for sale at the markets will be homegrown, organic, local, handmade, and fair trade. Here's your chance to find unique gifts - just in time for Christmas! And with the Scenic Rim becoming increasingly well known for its great produce and art, the markets promise to offer up seriously good buys.

The Great Darlington Duck Race will again take place, bring splashes of bright yellow to the Albert River - prebook your duck and if you've drawn the winner, you'll be rewarded with a weekend's accommodation at Eighteen Mile Cottage in the Lost World Valley.



Come along and enjoy a great day in South East Queensland's scenic countryside. With live music, country baked goods, burgers from the Vintage Cafe and a great brew from Cup-A-Licious, this special event promises to be a memorable day in the country, celebrating a much loved little school. What a great opportunity to catch up with old mates, rekindle old friendships and exchange memories and tales of the Darlington State School days.
