Kenmore State High School is a secondary education institution in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, with 1,960 students from grades seven through twelve in 2020. The school was opened in 1972. Since that time, it has offered many extracurricular activities such as scuba diving and horseback riding. There is also a geography club which travels to Canada annually and had its 40th anniversary in 2012. In 2015, a grade seven cohort was added. Kenmore State High School has been accredited by the Council of International Schools (Australia). School logo Kenmore's logo is made up of five items: the Munich Emblem, the castle, the trees, the birds and the book. The Munich Emblem is a reminder of the school's foundation year – the year of the Munich Olympics. The castle reminds of Kenmore Castle in Scotland; the home of some of the original settlers of Kenmore. The birds and the trees are a symbol of the environmental focus of the school, and the book symbolises learning. Sporting houses Kenmore State High School has eight sporting houses, each with a name taken from the Aboriginal language of the district. The sporting houses are: Bimbi – meaning "place of many birds". Carrawah – meaning "plenty of birds come to rest here". Tarcoola – meaning "a river bend". Wyuna – meaning "clear water". Allunga – meaning "beautiful place". Jarrah – meaning "Eucalyptus tree". Kinta – meaning "laughter". Alkira – meaning "the sky". Uniform There is a multi-gender sport uniform consisting of a green, grey, and yellow polo shirt and basketball shorts. Formal uniform differs for male and female students, with the male uniform consisting of a white shirt and grey trousers, and the female uniform consisting of a grey skirt and white shirt. There are winter variations available for the uniforms. School ties are optional for senior and junior students. The school enforces a strict uniform policy, and failure to adhere to the policy can result in a detention for the offending student. Students in Year 12 receive a jersey, with their choice of First or Last name on the back, alongside a two-digit number representing the year of graduation. The Information Communication Extension Program Information Communication Extension (ICE) is a three-year program running from Years 7–9 oriented towards the use of technology in studies. It is arguably the least intensive out of Kenmore's extension programs, as it only contains one semester's worth of extra-curricular content.
