Patricks Road State School opened on 24 January 1977.[5]
Until 2006, a notable feature of Ferny Hills was the Australian Woolshed, which was an Australian farming and wildlife attraction featuring shows and animal exhibits. This has since been demolished and a residential development has been built called ‘Woolshed Grove’ paying homage to its previous life. The Australian Woolshed was also featured as a setting in Episode 12, Season 4 of The Amazing Race
