Glenlee began its existence as a housing estate development in the 1980s. Originally, there was only one entry to the estate via Neilsens Avenue, leading to Emmerson Drive (named after "The Morning Bulletin" cartoonist Rod Emmerson) and Swadling Avenue. Blocks of land were approximately 2 acres, and addresses consisted of Lot numbers. Expansion saw the addition of more streets, and a second entrance via Terranova Drive. Newer lots sold were only 1 acre in size, and lots were assigned street numbers. The postcode was originally 4702, but is now 4711 after being recognised as an official locality.

Geography edit

The locality is bounded by an unnamed creek to the north, Yaamba Road to the east, Ramsay Creek to the south-east, and the Fitzroy River to the south-west and west.[3]

The North Coast railway line enters the locality from the south-east (Parkhurst) and exits to the north-east (Glendale).[3]

History edit

The School of Today opened in 1996. Some time prior to 2007, it was renamed Glenlee Christian College. The school was established by parents whose children who suffered from sensitivities to chemicals or who had learning difficulties linked to environmental factors. Therefore the school was established in a rural area away from the pollution of traffic and urban activities.[4][5] As of 2007, the school had nine students and one teacher.[6] It was located at 46 Dawson Road (23°15′08″S 150°29′38″E / 23.2522°S 150.4938°E / -23.2522; 150.4938 (Glenlee Christian College (former))) just to the east of the North Coast railway line.[3] The school subsequently closed.[7]

In January 2016, Carinity Education Rockhampton established a school on the site of the Glenlee Christian College.[8]

In the 2016 census, Glenlee had a population of 1,236 people.[1]
