Yallourn Primary School (Park Crescent)

Educational needs were recognised as early as 12 February, 1922 when the Yallourn State School No 4085 was opened with 13 pupils. The first school building was a weatherboard cottage at No.4 Hillside. By 1923 enrolment had reached 139 pupils, they came from the Camps and outlying areas, so a move to a new and bigger buildings in Outlook Road was needed. This would become the Secondary School when a new Primary school was opened in 1932, bordering Park Crescent, Banksia Crescent and Fairfield Avenue.
