History

The School closed and became part of Pakenham Consolidated School when it opened in May 1951. [3] The now demolished, Cora Lynn Hall (known as Keast Hall) was opened in 1911. The official opening of June 13 was abandoned as the hall was flooded with three feet of water [4]

Today

Cora Lynn has an Australian Rules football and Netball club which currently competes in the West Gippsland Football Netball League. [5] They previously competed in the Ellinbank and District Football Netball League.
