Historical information
The school was scheduled to be demolished in 1987 to make way for the Armadale Shopping City expansion. The community rallied to save the building by transporting it down the road to its new location. The old Congregational Church was rebuilt just before the school was moved and sits adjacent to the school.
Collected from under the old location of Armadale Primary School before it was moved to its current location in Minnawarra historic Precinct.
