Barmoya Central State School opened on 28 August 1918. [6] In February 1930, the school was closed because it had only seven students; it was suggested that the school should be moved to a more central location. [7] In October 1931, it was proposed to relocate the school building to Rossmoya Road where 16 students could attend the school, [8] [9] but some parents thought it was too distant for their children to travel to and from the school each day. [10] [11] In June 1932, it was decided to move the school to Rossmoya Road, [12] but, in March 1933, the government said there were insufficient funds available to move the school at that time. [13] In September 1933, tenders were called to relocate the school. [14] The school was relocated in January 1934. [15] In 1936, it was renamed Wattlebank State School. [16] It closed in December 1959. [17] It was on the western side of Rossmoya Road (approx 23°07′49″S150°27′34″E / 23.13030°S 150.45931°E ) in Wattlebank. [18] [19]
