Loganholme, Queensland, One Teacher School

This former school house was built at Loganholme, Queensland, Australia, and was opened in 1873. It was sited facing the Pacific Highway near the former Cotton Companys Road, now part of the Logan Motorway, with David Freeman as the first teacher. After the Loganholme State School was relocated further west towards Drews Road in 1974, the building was moved to Brisbane at the Kelvin Grove College of Advanced Education, where this photograph was taken. It was opened on the campus in 1975 as the One Teacher School Museum ‒ part of the centenary of the 1875 Educational Act in the Colony of Queensland. In 2009 the building was moved back to Logan City and currently is situated in the Beenleigh Historical Village. (Wikipedia Commons)
