    Samford Eco-Corridor team

    Samford Eco-corridor  is a Samford and District Progress and Protection Association project proudly funded by the Queensland Government’s Everyone’s Environment grant program and the Moreton Bay Regional Council.

    We are focused on improving the area around the river at Samford Parklands. This is a long-term project that involves clearing the area of invasive weeds, replanting with indigenous species, and creating a natural corridor that enhances the ecosystem, protects the river and provides a natural area for the benefit of people as well as wildlife.

    Please join in and help as much or as little as you can at Planting Days or monthly weeding sessions – all help is appreciated!

  • Samford State School in focus

    Samford school can be considered a large school by enrolment, our school is enveloped within a wonderfully close knit community and that warm country school feel endures still today.

    The school has adopted the ‘You Can Do It’ program as a means of developing the important foundation attributes of Organisation, Persistence, Confidence, Getting Along and Resilience. This program plays an important role in daily life at the school.

    There is a strong sense of pride at Samford State School; pride in the magnificent grounds, in the very high academic achievements of the children, in the children’s appearance and conduct, the teaching standards, the facilities and the general resources. We hope that you and your children will look back on your years at Samford with pride too, and fond memories of hard work, rewarding experiences and life-long friendships.

    I value the partnerships we make with parents and look forward to working with you to ensure your child develops the skills they need to successfully participate in an ever growing and complex world.

    This area requires some very good fitness levels due to the climbs involved. There is a myriad of fireroads that are legal to ride and few trails that are not legal so watch for signage to help you know which is which. Local knowledge sure helps to find the best trails here. Old School Rd provides a nice tough gravel road climb and a few fireroads lead of this. There is some great riding to had for the hardcore xc rider who enjoys steep descents, waterbars, steep pinch climbs and creek crossings. The fireroads that follow the boundry towards Cash’s Rd provide all of this.

    Not the place for the unfit or those skittish on loose, steep descents. At any speed the fireroads here demand some good technical skills and strength in the legs.
