Central Public School
100th Anniversary Celebration
|
Celebrate Central Public School's 100th anniversary on
December 11, from 10 am to 1 pm. Learn more about the building's history, get information on current programs, watch dance demonstrations and share your memories over a piece of "birthday cake."
While a school existed on the site since 1856, the current Central Public School building was constructed in 1916. As Brampton grew and more schools were built in surrounding areas, enrolment diminished and the school was closed in 1983. The City of Brampton purchased the property and officially opened Central Public School as a recreation/arts facility in 1984.
Currently, Central Public School is home to the City's dance program, boasting four fully-equipped dance studios, as well as seniors, youth, arts and wellness programs. The building also serves as a corporate training centre and offers meeting and party rooms for public rentals.
Central Public School is located at 24 Alexander St, in downtown Brampton. [more...]
