History
In 1915, the East Kwyolin School was a more central site on DArlington's block and continued to operate as Esat Kwyolin School. In 1921, the name was changed to Erikin School. In April 1931, the school closed. Jimmy McCullock put the school on wheels and his team of bullocks relocated it to a site in Kellerberrin.
