[1] Millaa Millaa is on the Atherton Tableland in Far North Queensland, approximately 60 kilometres (37 mi) west of Innisfail, north of Ravenshoe, and south of Malanda.
[citation needed] The name Millaa Millaa is probably a corruption of a Yindinji language term millai millai, probably referring to a fruit-bearing plant Elaeagnus latifolia.
[2] It is a vine with a similar habit to Bougainvillea, somewhat sprawling all over the place.
[11] On Sunday 26 September 1937 St Rita's Catholic Church was officially opened and blessed by Bishop John Heavey.
[12] At the end of 1945, the Middlebrook Road State School in neighbouring Middlebrook closed and its school building was relocated to Millaa Millaa State School and a bus service was provided to transport the students from Middlebrook to Millaa Millaa to attend school each day.
It is within the Malanda Parish of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Cairns.
