Prior to European settlement, the Trebonne area was inhabited by the Warakamai People.[4]

The town derives its name from Trebonne Creek, which was allegedly named by Leon Burguez, sugar planter who lived at Gairloch, probably in the 1870s.[2]

Upper Trebonne Provisonal School opened on 7 November 1906. On 1 January 1909 it became Upper Trebonne State School. It was renamed Trebonne State School circa 1932.[5]

In 1951 Canossa Catholic Primary School was established by Canossia Daughters of Charity.[5][6] It closed on 6 December 2013.[7]
