ABOUT NUNDAH North East Brisbane was one of the first regions in Queensland to be settled by Europeans. Prior to this time, the area around Nundah was predominantly inhabited by the Turrbul tribe. The surrounding area was densely populated by Aboriginal people, with the name 'Nundah' being derived from the original Aboriginal name for the area. Fast forward to the 880 s, and Nundah became known as a suburb where working-class families could obtain cheap housing not too far from the city. In 909, Surrey Street in Nundah became the site of the first public housing dwelling in Queensland. In the early twentieth century, Nundah became a major suburban centre, due to its location on Sandgate Road, one of Brisbane's busiest arterial roads, and the adjacent Nundah railway station. Sandgate Road and nearby streets were lined with shops, pubs, cinemas and other commercial premises. Today, Nundah is a vibrant community with cafes, shops and a strong sense of community. is a drop in centre that provides a basis for those needing social support, counselling, free legal services, English classes, job search assistance, information & referrals, tea/coffee and a place to relax. We also have a number of groups you can join such as a playgroup, community garden and yoga/meditation classes. NEED TO KNOW MORE?
