Physical Description

West Leederville Primary School is a brick and iron primary school in the Federation Arts and Crafts style, together with a collection of buildings comprising shelter sheds, pavilion classroom, pre-primary, toilet block, covered area, transportable classroom, kindergarten, covered sand pit, and gardener’s store, in an open bitumen paved and grassed setting. The pavilion classroom (1915) is rare as an example of its type and for the fact that it is retained on its original site, with few later changes.
