C. M. Wilson, secretary-treasurer of the West Gwillimbury Township Area School Board, points proudly the "1954" tablet of the township's newest school.
The New S.S. # 5 West Gwillimbury School at Bond Head. This building was erected on the same property just south of the 80 year old school. The one-classroom brick structure, built by Contractor Wilfred Halbert from Thornton had windows all along the side facing the road. The students and teacher, George Pocock moved from one school to the other at the beginning of February 1954. An additional classroom opened on January 3, 1955 with Dawna Herard as the firs teacher.
The old Lytle Residence in Bond Head is in the background of this photo. It had a long lane running back to it. The photo in the front is the old Duffin Home.
