A ‘Provisional’ school was opened in 1903 but closed due to lack of support. It was reopened again in 1911 for two years. In 1937 Doonside Primary School was opened.
The first application for our school was made to Blacktown Shire Council on 28th May, 1934. It was unsuccessful because Council felt that Blacktown School was big enough to accommodate students and that there was a train service from Doonside to Blacktown.
In March and November of 1935 it was again applied for but declined for the same reasons. But after much consideration, approval was finally given on 14th July, 1936 for a public school. |
