Prior to the opening of Brisbania Public School the pupils from Saratoga travelled by ferry to Woy Woy wharf and walked to school.   The children from Davistown rowed across Brisbane Water to Empire Bay, then preceded to walk to school.

Because of these arrangements, the community sought to have their own school and Pat Bourke donated the present site to the Department of Education.

As the school was to serve the needs of the children of both Saratoga and Davistown, a suitable name was needed. Brisbania Primary School came into being with its extensive, picturesque views over Brisbane Waters. The school opened on 16th September, 1941.

The original classrooms were single timber demountables. The school has been extensively refurbished over the last two decades. In terms of location and architecture Brisbania began the 1990's as one of the most beautiful schools in the state.
