Tuggeranong Schoolhouse Museum

The Tuggeranong Schoolhouse site is one of the earliest public schoolhouses constructed in the ACT, providing an excellent example of late 19th-century school architecture and evidence of early rural public school life. The school also provides an important link between the educational and social values of its regional community.

The Tuggeranong Schoolhouse provided sixty years of continuous schooling to pioneer families of the Tuggeranong district. The place demonstrates the remote nature of a rural school by the provision of an attached teachers’ residence.
