STONY CREEK STATE SCHOOL NO. 3665 & TEACHER'S RESIDENCE - Physical Description 1
The former Stony Creek State School No. 3665 is a typical single room weatherboard school with an offset gable entry porch to the north and a bank of double hung and hopper windows to the south. The porch has a north entry and a side entry in an extended section of its roof plane. The gable ends of the building have louvred vents and the gable to the porch retains a vertical battened end frame (similar end frames to the main gable such as those at the matching Dollar State School may have been removed). There is an original shelter shed with a skillion roof with deep eaves in the north east corner, and a storage shed/former shelter shed close to the school.
The School is set in grounds that include a number of mature exotic and native trees planted by students over the years. A formal garden with a Canary Island Palm at its centre is situated adjacent to the frontage.
