KEBARINGUP SCHOOL
The Kebaringp School opened of 4th April 1921 in an all weatherboard building with an iron rook, brick chimney and an open fire place, with a verandah partly enclosed. The site was on an approx. 5 acre reserve near the front gate of Arthur Johnston's property on the Borden-Gnowangerup road. There was a bushyard for horses as most of the children rode horses or drove in horse and sulky to the school.
