Statement of Significance
Built as Primary School No 2258 by Joseph Jarvis in 1886 for 200 pupils it is the only one of this standard plan and size to have survived without major alterations and additions.
The drawings were executed by S E Bindley and endorsed by H R Bastow of the Public Works Department.
This school and Burwood Primary School are the only two schools that have an original timber tiered platform.
Although the infants' room at the rear had been demolished, the jerkinhead roofs, the multi-coloured brick walls, the original windows and all the roof and gable finials are as originally designed.
Classified: 16/8/84.
