Overview

Wondai is a rural township in the South Burnett Region, sitting just south of the Bunya Highway and about 241 km north‑west of Brisbane. With a 2021 census population of 1,975, the town serves as a quiet hub for surrounding beef, dairy, grain and emerging wine enterprises, and its proximity to the local Wondai Airport and the highway provides easy road and air connections for residents and visitors alike.

The South Burnett Regional Council runs a library (opened 1962) and the Wondai Heritage Museum showcases the area’s history, while a range of churches and a Queensland Country Women’s Association branch foster a close‑knit community spirit. Education is catered for by Wondai State School (Prep‑Year 9). Housing reflects the town’s character, from heritage‑listed homesteads such as Boondooma to more contemporary family homes, offering options for both retirees and growing families.
