This is one of the small rural primary in the Bundaberg Region of Queensland (northeastern Australia). Ausrlian agriculture was extensive, This means that the popilation density was low. As a result there were quite a numbr of very small one-room primaries. This is a good example of these schools. We see a one room school in 1955. It shows a standard one-room school. Not all were this small, but many were. Several of the students wear the basic school summer uniform worn throughout Australia and New Zealand, although it was apparently not requird. The boys wear lihjht-weight cotton grey shirts and shorts, Two of the girls wear white blouses and gym frocks which Americans call jumpers.
