Delvine School Traditional Cache

Delvine Park is a large property situated between Stratford and Bairnsdale in Victoria.

The property was settled by John Scott in the early 1840's.

Over time properties bordering the estate became part of the property with Delvine Park eventually becoming an estate of over 8000 acres.

A school was established for the children of families working on Delvine Park and surrounding properties.

The Delvine school Number 1696 operated at this site between 1876 to 1973. The school was established for the children of families working on Delvine Park and surrounding properties.

The school building was relocated to the Bairnsdale Museum located at 40 Macarthur Street, Bairnsdale.

There is also a cemetery containing over 60 graves. Most of the people buried there worked for John Scott or on the neighbouring farms.
