Toogoolawah, Queensland : ウィキペディア英語版 | Toogoolawah
Toogoolawah ( ) is a small town in South East Queensland, Australia. Toogoolawah is a centre for gliding and parachuting and in the past the centre of a dairying industry. Cressbrook Creek, a tributary of the Brisbane River, passes through the town as does the Brisbane Valley Highway. At the , Toogoolawah had a population of 961. The town is located in the Somerset Region local government area. There are three pubs in Toogoolawah, all situated on the main road. ==Naming== Toogoolawah is derived from the Aboriginal words "dhoo" (a generic term for tree) and "goo/lawa", meaning "crescent shaped" or "bent like a crescent moon". The name probably referred to a tree with a deformed trunk which stood on the site in Bulimba, rather than to the supposed shape outlined by the Brisbane River as it rounds Bulimba Point, as has been alleged.
