History


Garnant State School opened on 11 September 1930. The school was called Garnant after the town Garnant in Glamorganishire, Wales, which was the home town of local resident Abraham Jones who took a leading role in establishing the school. Presumably the locality took its name from the school. The school building was relocated from neighbouring Morinish (as the Morinish State School had closed in 1928). Garnant State School closed in 1969. It was on Evans Road (23.1902°S 150.2595°E / -23.1902; 150.2595 (Garnant State School (former))).
