Administrative history
Early documents record that a school house at Wellington, Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia, had been in existence since 1842. The community is also known to have the oldest Home and School Association in Yarmouth County. Following the 1864 Education Act, Wellington was designated as School Section Number 22 in the District of Yarmouth. The date of founding for the five room school house is unknown. However it is known that the school supported students from pre-schoolers up to grade 10. All of the students were taught in the same room and the remaining rooms were used for special classes such as manual training (shop class). The school was closed following the opening of Hebron Consolidated School in 1957.
