context_page_description: Aspley is a suburb of the City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is located about 13 kilometres north and about a half-hour drive north of the Brisbane central business district. It is positioned on flat ground south of Cabbage Tree Creek, centred on Little Cabbage Tree Creek and on the surrounding hills to the east and south.
context_section_description: Little Cabbage Tree Creek School was established in 1890 to serve the local community.  Before it was built, students would infrequently attend classes at the schools in Bald Hills or Zillmere.  Initial sites for the new school were not approved by the Government before finally accepting the location on the corner of Maundrell Terrace and Horn Road.  In 1897 the school was renamed Aspley State School.
  By the 1960s the growth of the local area necessitated building additional schools. Aspley East State School opened in 1963 and has now become one of the largest and most popular primary schools on Brisbane's north side, drawing students from a wide area. Aspley State High School opened on 29 January 1963 (it was originally to be called Zillmere State High School but was renamed on 17 January 1963).  Sisters of St Joseph opened St Dympna's Primary School in 1963.
