About Sandgate District State High
Sandgate District State High is a school which has been strongly connected to the Sandgate community since 1959. There is a strong sense of belonging among the students, teachers and alumni, demonstrated by the large number of anniversary occasions which are organised to celebrate various milestones in the school's history.
Sandgate is a northern Bayside suburb in Brisbane. It is currently undergoing a process of gentrification, with many first home buyers also attracted to the area. A number of generations of the one family have chosen to continue to reside in Sandgate and the suburb is characterised by a well-established sense of shared history and community.
Sandgate is a Band 11 co-educational school which has a current enrolment of around 1150 students in Years 7 to 12. In 2015, the school welcomed its first Year 7 cohort.
