Corinella School started as a
subsidised school in 1959. Members of the local community
purchased the old Warroo school building and transported it
to the current site, approximately 60km south-west of Forbes
N.S.W.
In 1959 the first teacher, Miss Joan Rawsthorne was employed
at the subsidised school, and in 1960 Miss Hammond held that
position.
In 1961 it was established as a state school and has always
been either a 1 or 2 teacher school drawing children from up
to a 30km radius. In that time student enrolments have
ranged from 6 to 40 children in grades K-6.
Mr Graham Fowler was appointed to be the first public school
teacher in 1961 and spent 9 years in that
position.
