While it is the main purpose of this booklet to trace the school's history and to commemorate its founding, it is not possible to exclude from this booklet and our celebrations the general history of our district. Most small rural schools have served their district both as a means to education and also as a social centre and focal point of district activities. Wakarara school has been no exception to this and the history of the district and of the school have followed parallel courses"--Page 1.
