​​​Wynnum State School is a greenfield site. The school opened its doors as a new educational institution in 2011 in the grounds of the old Wynnum North State School, known for the year as the Tingal Hill site. The school relocated to its new premises in Boxgrove Avenue for the commencement of the 2012 school year. The main entrance in Boxgrove Avenue has access to public parking and bus services. The Stradbroke Avenue entrance services the Early Childhood Development Program (ECDP) and staff parking. The Wynnum Road entrance is for staff, service deliveries and School Age Care clients. 

The current 2023​​ enrolment is 745 students ranging from the preparatory year to the seniors (year six). Enrolment forms (PDF, 516 KB) can be requested from the school's Executive Services or downloaded from this website.
