HISTORY

Balnaring no date. School grounds with a shade house.
The tea tree ‘summer house’ was built at the ‘bottom’ of the school yard. Boys cut tea tree on the road side when coming to school and dragged it into position to make the walls and roof. It was named ‘Misery Farm’ after a song popular at that time.
