A classroom at Nauru Secondary School after refurbishment as part of an Australian aid package to the island state.

In the 1950s it served grades 4 and 5, and a new building opened in 1954. Reuben Kun, who wrote an article about Nauru's university system, stated that in that period there was an unanticipated increase in the number of students at the school.^[5] The school had classes teaching Nauruan circa the 1960s and 1970s.^[6] In 2013 it became a Queensland Recognised School.^[4]
