Carenne Public School - History
The parents and many local volunteers maintained a regular fund of helpful assistance to the teachers and to the pupils. The immediate rural surroundings maintained a regular supply of half grown - and fully grown snakes which had to be "dispatched to their maker" by the staff with an assortment of implements.
The organising committee was delighted to welcome many visitors to this official function - people who had been associated with the school from its inception as well as those who had only recently become part of the Carenne "community".
A Carenne emblem and logo was devised by the school principal, Mr. Ian McPherson, for the occasion of the opening - it epitomises the sentiment that Carenne School, the Community and the Home are caring together for the betterment of the pupils.
