Upset at Ouse closure

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 29 November 2012 | 19.55

PARENTS of Ouse Primary School students have voted to close the historic school at the end of this year.

But many remain upset, saying some of those who voted are sending their children to other schools next year anyway.

It is believed the vote was very close.

School association secretary Narelle Davie has three children at the school, with a fourth also planning to attend.

"I'm very unhappy about it. My family has been involved in the school for generations," said Mrs Davie, whose family lives on a farm outside Ouse.

"It's also disappointing that the broader community was not involved and they didn't have the opportunity to show their support."

Mrs Davie said the meetings were only for parents, not other community members

Parents had been told that only 21 children were expected to be at the school next year.

This would mean the school qualified for just 1.8 teachers, leaving them with just one big class from kinder to grade 6 for two days a week.

It presently has just 32 students. The school, first opened in 1847, was a combined primary and secondary school until 2009.
