East Treherne School

The first East Treherne School was one that Mr. Delahunt built when he came to this country. The date is not available but it was sometime before 1888.

On February 1, 1913 the school and all contents were burned. School was then held at a house after it was fixed up for use as a school. The trustees at once decided to rebuild after arrangements could be made to borrow money. But disaster followed as the house school burned down and the children had to take their studies in the unfinished new school for the rest of the year.

The school was closed in August, 1947 because there were not enough students. On May 19, 1956 a sale for the school property was held and the school was later sold again and was moved to Rathwell where it was remodeled as a house.
