Gindie is a rural locality in the Central Highlands Region, Queensland, Australia.

[7][8] The Gindie State Farm was established In 1898 to experiment with growing new kinds of crops in the district such as sorghum, maize and pumpkins.

[10] It was on a 2-acre (0.81 ha) site off to the west the Gregory Highway north of the town (approx 23°50′52″S 148°07′17″E / 23.8479°S 148.1214°E / -23.8479; 148.1214 (Fernlees State School (former))).

This included adjusting the boundaries of other existing localities in the Region to accommodate these changes; Gindie gaining the south-eastern corner of The Gemfields and gaining the eastern edge of Lochington, but losing a small area of its northern part and a small area from its north-east part to Anakie Siding, increasing the area of the locality from 1,293.4 to 1,335.3 square kilometres (499.4 to 515.6 sq mi).

[16][17][18][4] As a consequence of these changes, Lake Maraboon is now entirely within the north-west of Gindie and the boundary between Lochington and Minerva/Gindie more closely follows the course of the Nogoa River.

[25] It offers basic residential accommodation and outdoor programs for students from Prep to Year 12.
