Located on a vast 136 hectare site at Boondall, Nudgee College is only a 15 minute drive from Brisbane Airport, and in close proximity to several major highways. It is close enough to the city to be convenient, yet far enough away to have it’s own special atmosphere. Here at Nudgee College, we hire out some of our outstanding facilities to external groups and visitors.
