The weatherboard churches
were typical of the ‘in
between the wars’ style and
give an indication of the
larger population of that area.

On the west side of the bowling
green on the Mallee Highway is
the commemorative stone for the
original Manangatang State School…
1915. The school area occupied a
large area and the tall sugar gums
still present, indicate the boundaries
of the school yard. Teachers
occupied some of the houses
around the corner in Pioneer Street.
Note the Canary Island date
palms in front of the Anglican
Church ...these too were typical
of the era and were also
planted on either side of the
Catholic church entrance.
