The first school at Whittlesea was built with a subsidy of ??500 from the Denominational Schools Board in 1856. It was a brick building and had a small teacher's residence. In 1878 a new school was constructed on land bought by the Education Department and formerly occupied by the Farmer's Arms Hotel. The architect was Henry Bastow. The building contractor WH Lockwood completed a new building in brick on a bluestone base in July 1878 and it was opened in September of that year. It has an attached residence at the rear. The window in the gable end was enlarged, other openings made and the galleries removed in 1926 and another classroom added. A Sloyd room was built in 1912: this was added to the shelter shed but both have been removed. Families of workers building the Yan Yean water scheme, timber splitters working in the forests of Mount Disappointment local tenant farmers and those living in the township sent children to the school. The school is an asymmetrical single-storey brick building on a bluestone foundation with a slate roof. There is a gabled porch roof supported on timber brackets to mark the school entry on the south side. The building has arched Gothic windows and varied roof forms. The teacher's residence is entered from the verandah on the east side. Its detached kitchen has been demolished. How is it significant?

It has important associations with the Yan Yean water scheme which brought workers and their families to the area during its construction and consequently children to the school.

It is unique as the only example of this type with an attached residence. It is important as it has had little alteration in its form since its construction and retains its original floor plan.

Bastow was attached to the Education Department from 1873 until 1883. | | 17 Aug 2023 | Outbuilding | (Source: , 申請編號: ) |
