St Michael’s School is located in Gordonvale; a rural, country town on the fringe of the city of Cairns, in Tropical Far North Queensland.
Nestled at the foot of Walsh’s Pyramid, Gordonvale has a population of about 7,000 people and is a town with a culture of its own.
Urban sprawl has resulted in Gordonvale becoming a southern suburban extremity of Cairns. The suburb is surrounded predominantly by sugarcane fields and St Michael’s School is only a ‘stone’s throw’ from the operational Mulgrave Sugar Mill.
