The school had a population of 32 students and was led by Head Teacher Ted Liesegang. By 1960, the school had reached a total population of 54 students, followed by 84 in the following year. In order to meet the growing demands of the school, new school facilities were constructed on land on Russell Street in the early 1960s. The school was officially opened by the State Treasurer, Sir Thomas Hiley, KBE on 27 April 1963. [4]
