Geography


Surrounding suburbs of Yatala include Beenleigh, Windaroo, and Stapylton. Yatala and adjoining suburbs are located near the confluence of the Albert River, which is at the northern end of the suburb.


Etymology


The suburb takes its name from a property on the Albert River which was named by a South Australian after Yatala Harbor near Port Augusta, South Australia.[3] The word is presumed to be from the Kaurna Aboriginal word 'yertalla', meaning water running by the side of a river.[4][5] As a place name it specifically referred to the inundation of the usually-dry plain either side of Dry Creek in South Australia after heavy rain.

History


St Mary's Catholic Church was officially opened by Bishop James Quinn on Sunday 12 December 1875. The church was originally built as a masonic hall.[6] The church building is no longer extant.[7]

St Joseph's School opened on November 1875 and closed on December 1877.[8]

In 1988, Bernie Powers operating as Power's Brewery opened a new brewery in Yatala.[9] Powers entered a joint venture with Carlton & United Breweries (CUB) in 1992 and then sold completely to them in 1993. For CUB, it provided a modern efficient plant on a large site, ideal for their northern brewing operations. By 2010, CUB had expanded by the plant to over 20 times its original size, enabling it to produce one quarter of Australia's beer.[10]

Rivermount College opened on 1992.[11]

Since 2006, development has been rapidly occurring within the suburb, with over 300 businesses now established within its boundaries.[12] This type of urban development is predicted to eventually encompass all the semi-rural land currently separating the Brisbane Metropolitan Area and Gold Coast City. Currently, there is approximately 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) of this land remaining between the two cities.

In the 2011 census, Yatala had a population of 1,346 people.[13]
