The locality is split between the Western Downs Region (northern part of the locality) and the Goondiwindi Region (southern part of the locality). The Moonie Highway passes through the locality from the north-east to the south-west. The Leichhardt Highway passes through the locality from the north to the south. The town is at the intersection of the two highways.[4] HistoryThe town's name is derived from Moonie River, which was first recorded as Mooni by Sir Thomas Mitchell in November 1846 when he passed through the region.[5] Moonie State School opened on 14 May 1962.[6] Moonie Post Office opened by June 1966 closed in 1983.[7] Moonie Library opened in 2003.[8] EconomyIn December 1961 Moonie was the site of Australia's first commercial oil field, a very small field consisting of less than one percent of Australia's oil and gas reserves.[9] The oil field is still operational and pumps out 35 kilolitres (7,700 gallons) every day.[10] The region is also an agricultural area that produces grain, beef cattle and prime lambs. EducationMoonie State School is a government co-educational primary (P-6) school at 11305 Moonie Highway. In 2016, the school had an enrolment of 43 students with 4 teachers (3 full-time equivalent) and 5 non-teaching staff (2 full-time equivalent).[11] AmenitiesThe town has a service station, the Moonie Sports Club and a motel. Moonie Library is located on the Leichhardt Highway.[12] References1. ^{{cite QPN|22670|Moonie|town in Western Downs Region|accessdate=29 December 2017}} 2. ^{{cite QPN|47730|Moonie|locality in Western Downs Region|accessdate=29 December 2017}} 3. ^{{cite QPN|47820|Moonie|locality in Goondiwindi Region|accessdate=29 December 2017}} 4. ^{{Queensland Globe|accessdate=19 September 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=MOONIE, QUEENSLAND|url=http://www.australiaforeveryone.com.au/places_moonie.htm|accessdate=30 May 2011}} 6. ^{{Citation|title=Queensland schools past and present|publication-date=2010|author1=Queensland Family History Society|edition=Version 1.01|publisher=Queensland Family History Society|isbn=978-1-921171-26-0}} 7. ^{{Cite web | last = Premier Postal History | title = Post Office List | publisher = Premier Postal Auctions | url = https://www.premierpostal.com/cgi-bin/wsProd.sh/Viewpocdwrapper.p?SortBy=QLD&country= | accessdate = 10 May 2014}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.plconnect.slq.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0012/388497/SLQ_StatsBulletin1617_20171109.pdf|title=Public Libraries Statistical Bulletin 2016-17|last=|first=|date=November 2017|website=Public Libraries Connect|publisher=State Library of Queensland|page=16|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180130022546/http://www.plconnect.slq.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0012/388497/SLQ_StatsBulletin1617_20171109.pdf|archive-date=30 January 2018|dead-url=no|access-date=30 January 2018}} 9. ^{{cite web | url = http://walkabout.com.au/locations/QLDMoonie.shtml | title = Moonie | work = Walkabout - Australian Travel Guide | publisher = Fairfax | accessdate = 2007-09-23}} 10. ^{{cite web | url =http://www.queenslandholidays.com.au/destinations/western-downs/places-to-visit/moonie/ | title = Places to Visit - Western Downs - Moonie | work = Queensland Holidays | publisher = Tourism Queensland | accessdate = 2007-09-23}} 11. ^{{Cite web|url=https://mooniess.eq.edu.au/Supportandresources/Formsanddocuments/Annual%20reports/Annual%20Report%202016.pdf|title=Annual Report 2016|last=|first=|date=|website=Moonie State School|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170919011644/https://mooniess.eq.edu.au/Supportandresources/Formsanddocuments/Annual%20reports/Annual%20Report%202016.pdf|archive-date=19 September 2017|dead-url=no|access-date=19 September 2017}} 12. ^{{Cite web|url=http://plconnect.slq.qld.gov.au/networking/directory-of-public-libraries/branches/western_downs/moonie_library|title=Public Libraries Statistical Bulletin 2016-17|last=|first=|date=|website=Public Libraries Connect|publisher=State Library of Queensland|page=16|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=19 January 2018}} External links
