Summary
"At the beginning of June in 1930, the official opening of Guanaba State School was celebrated in conjunction with Arbor Day and took the form of a basket picnic in the school grounds. Notice was given in 1939 that the school was to close due to insufficient numbers. The school building was removed from the site in 1949 to Gibbs Street Southport as a private residence."--Coghill, Gloria A.: 125 years of schooling on the Coomera, 1873-1998, 1998, p. 46The Sea Hawk Apartments were constructed at the Gibbs Street site in the 2010s.
