Geography

East Palmerston landscape, 2023

The Palmerston Highway enters the locallity from the north-east (Nerada / Coorumba) and exits to south-west through the locality (Palmerston / Wooroonooran).[5]

The land use is a mixture of grazing on native vegetation and horticulture.[6] It is a prominent banana growing region with some of Australia's largest banana plantations.[3][4]

History

The locality is presumably so named because it is to the east of neighbouring Palmerston, which in turn is believed to be named after explorer and prospector, Christie Palmerston.[7]

About July 1933, the land of East Palmerston was surveyed to enable 10,400 acres be offered for selection in 55 lots.[8] By September 1938, a large population was living in the area with some farms sufficiently established to supply cream to the Millaa Millaa butter factory.[9]

The Palmerston East State School (sometimes called East Palmerston State School) opened on 19 April 1938.[10] In 2010, the school had an enrolment of 17 students with 2 teachers (1 full-time equivalent) and 7 non-teaching staff (2 full-time equivalent).[11] It closed on 26 April 2012.[12][13] It was located at 2068 Palmerston Highway East (17°36′12″S 145°50′48″E / 17.6033°S 145.8467°E / -17.6033; 145.8467 (East Palmerston State School)).[14] The school's website was archived.[15]

On 25 April (Anzac Day) 2008, a memorial was unveiled at Palmerston East State School at 2068 Palmerston Highway commemorating the Australian servicemen and women who served during wars and other conflicts.[16]
