Biggenden, Queensland : ウィキペディア英語版 | Biggenden
Biggenden is a town and locality in the North Burnett Region, Queensland, Australia. It is on the Isis Highway north-west of the state capital Brisbane, and west of Maryborough. At the 2011 census, Biggenden had a population of 682 people. ==History== The name is derived from the Kabi word ''bigindhan'' meaning a ''place of stringybark''.〔〔 Biggenden was founded in 1889 as a service centre to the short-lived goldrush towns of Paradise and Shamrock; and for coach passengers travelling west from Maryborough. The township, including the intriguingly named ''Live And Let Live Inn'', moved to a new location alongside the railway station when the rail line arrived in 1891. Biggenden Post Office opened on 16 May 1891. Biggenden Provisional school opened on 9 May 1892, becoming Biggenden State School in 1900. In January 1953, the school experimented with offering high school subjects by correspondence. In 1958, a secondary school section was added.
