Mount Mee, Queensland
Mount Mee is a rural town and locality in the City of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia. In the 2021 census, the locality of Mount Mee had a population of 519 people.
Mount Mee (also known as Bonnie Knob) is a mountain, located north of the town of Dayboro, in the D'Aguilar Range(27°04′47″S 152°46′53″E / 27.0797°S 152.7814°E), rising 498 metres (1,634 ft) above sea level.
Brisbane–Woodford Road (Mount Mee Road) runs through from south to north.
The area around Mount Mee was known to the indigenous inhabitants of the area as Dahmongah, a word meaning "flying squirrel" or glider. The English name Mount Mee is possibly derived from another local word mia-mia, meaning a view or lookout, but this name was not formalised until the establishment of the school in 1899.
Settlers began arriving in the area around Mount Mee in 1873, many being timber-getters attracted by the red cedar timber that was readily available in the area. Initially, timber cut down in the area was exported to the nearby towns of Caboolture, D'Aguilar and Woodford, but a sawmill was eventually built in the fledgling town. A number of larger mills were operated on various parts of the mountain until the last closed in 1982.
Dahmongah Provisional School opened on 20 February 1884. In 1900, it was renamed Mount Mee Provisional School. It closed in 1904 due to low student numbers but opened again in 1909. On 1 October 1909, it became Mount Mee State School.
Mount Mee Methodist Church was consecrated on 16 December 1922, where it operated as a community church which could be used for any Christian purpose. As of July 2023 it has closed operations.
Mount Mee Public Hall opened in 1933.
