Mural #17 First Schoolhouse, 1883

In 1883, the first public school in Chemainus was built next to the route of the E. & N. Railway. The mural is based on an 1885 photograph.

From left to right in the foreground are Jack Windsor, Fred Cottenham, Elsie and Charlie Campbell, Mary Windsor, William Thomas, George, Lillie, Fred and Tom Bonsall and Joe Allard.
