Photograph, School Photograph, c1900

Historical information

The students in the photo were attending Sunbury Common School No. 1002 which was first permanent government school building to be erected in 1871 in the town on the corner of Macedon and Stawell Streets with an enrolment of 32 students. Over the years faults appeared in the building and eventually after the local community made the government aware of the old building's many faults, a new two-roomed brick school was built on the same site in 1912.
