“The building for St. Daniel School District No. 811, a fine example of the once-ubiquitous one-room schoolhouses of rural Manitoba, is located northwest of Carman, near the former Metis settlement at Rivière aux Îlets-de-Bois. The district operated before 1894 to 1968 and the building (which dates from 1952) is now used as a community hall.”
