Biographical history

The first school was established at Trouty by the mid-19th century. Under the Trinity Church of England Board of Education a new school was built in 1912-13. In 1957 this school, in turn, was replaced with a new school, built close to the same site. Up to the mid-1950s the school had students in all grades up to grade 11. After 1965 there was a sharp decline in the school age population, and the highest grade taught was grade 7. High school students were bussed to a larger school in the area. The school closed in the late 1960s.
