“1881 School
Address: Located in park next to McKay Avenue School
Year: 1881
This is the first ‘official’ school in Alberta. After the McKay Avenue School was opened, this structure was sold and moved down the hill to the river valley. The house was almost lost in the floods of 1915, but survived after someone tethered it to a large tree. The building was later moved to its present site, and serves as a living museum.”
