Details

1878: Narracan No. 2012 opened.

1880: Narracan West No. 2012 opened. Narracan West was effectively an annex of Narracan. To try to avoid confusion Narracan was called A Narracan and Narracan West was called B Narracan West.

Name change in 1884: B Narracan West No. 2012 changed its name to Thorpdale and closed in 1895.

Move and re-number in 1893: A Narracan No. 2012 moved to a new location within Narracan and was given a new number (No. 2295) thus becoming a new school.
