Moodlu

History

The locality takes its name from its railway station which is a Kabi word meaning stone. Wararba Provisional School opened circa 1884. On 1 January 1909, it became Waraba State School. In 1911, it was renamed Moodlu State School. The school closed on 4 July 1947. It was on a site at 199 Williams Road (). The site is now the Caboolture Pony Club.

Geography

Moodlu is by road north of the Brisbane CBD. The D'Aguilar Highway runs through from east to west. The Caboolture Connection Road, formerly part of the D'Aguilar Highway, leaves the highway in Moodlu and runs south-east to Caboolture. The proposed Bruce Highway Western Alternative will pass through Moodlu from south to north.
