Central State School
Featured on Maryborough's Walk and Drive Tour - The first building of Central State School is the Infants School which opened 1882. The single storey timber building originally had a shingle roof but this has been replaced with iron. However the lantern tower remains.
The main school building was constructed in 1875/6 to be the second Immigration Barracks, but as the first Government School was now too small, a swap was arranged and in July 1877 it became the Central School.
Duncan Chapman, a pupil of the school, and reputed to have been the first man ashore at Gallipoli, has a tree planted in the grounds in his memory.
