The Kurow Public School
The Kurow Public School , which was opened in 1882, stands on a section of four acres of land at the corner of Bridge and Robinson Streets. The building is of wood and iron, and consists of two classrooms divided by a large porch. There is accommodation for 100 pupils, which is the number on the roll, and the average attendance for the year 1902 was eighty-five. A large playground and the teacher's residence adjoin the school. Mr. J. T. Kelly is headmaster, and Miss Ford infant mistress.
