History

Gold was first discovered in Sailors Gully in 1852, allegedly by a sailor or group of sailors who had abandoned their ships and headed to the goldfields. On 13 August 1855, a Church of England school was opened in Sailors Gully by Hugh Morrow. The following year, another building was built, serving as a church and a school. This second school (No. 570) was officially opened on 1 July 1874.
