Papers - History of Schools in the Kiewa Valley
Education in the Kiewa Valley began with small schools in many locations enabling the children from the farms to attend their nearby school. As the number of children decreased and transport improved the schools were consolidated into fewer schools located in a centralised position.The history of each school gives an insight into the surrounding population - their numbers, occupations and lifestyle as well as their involvement in the running of the schools eg. Mothers' Clubs etc.8 groups of foolscap size papers stapled or pinned together each with the heading 'School History'. The first 4 are the same - "Mt Beauty School'. There is one for 'Mt Beauty High School', One for 'Mullindoligong School', One for 'Tawonga School'.One for 'Tawonga South School'.kiewa valley education, schools in the kiewa valley
