Statement of Significance
Camballing Marradong School site represents the former area of residents, and marks one of the first schools in the area of Marradong.
Physical Description
Originally stood a single roomed wooden or mud brick building in the area of Marradong. A reserve remains on the school site.
History
School groups in the Marradong area consisted of approximately twenty students and one teacher. Many schools were formed as space was abundant between residents.
Originally, three schools in Marradong used the word "Marradong" in their school's name. Consequently, it is hard to decipher between schools, school sites, and school houses.
Amalgamation occurred in the 1940's when it became policy to provide a school bus service for the Marradong students. Boddington School was ultimately the education facility for the district of Marradong.
It is believed that school houses were eventually sold off.
