Bellerive B16 - Historical Chart

Year: circa 1859
Print Size: 46cm x 64cm

The Bellerive School, formally known as the Kangaroo Point School was established in 1842 under Schoolmaster John Lane. A sketch of the original sandstone school house, now a private residence is clearly shown on this plan. In 1954 the school moved to new buildings in Leslie Street. Interestingly, this plan also depicts the site of the later to be built Kangaroo Bluff Battery. A report in 1873 of possible Russian warships lurking in the region prompted plans to build a defense battery at Kangaroo Bluff. Construction commenced in 1880 with the battery completed in 1884.
