General Wolfe School, named for the military general who won the battle at the Plains of Abraham for British forces, was constructed in 1920 by day labourers working for the Sutherland Construction Company. Designed by local architect John Nelson Semmens, the one-storey, 16-classroom structure (with an assembly hall as the sole space on a small second storey) was designed to accommodate 720 students. Initially intended as an elementary school, at various times through its history, the building was used as a High School (later transferred to Daniel McIntyre Collegiate) and a Junior High School (tranferred from Greenway School).

Construction of a new school, designed by the Winnipeg architectural firm of Smith, Carter, and Partners, began in October 1975 and was completed at a cost of around $2.1 million. Located parallel to Banning Street, it opened to students in December 1976. With the demolition of the old school underway, the new General Wolfe School was officially opened on 9 March 1977 by the Minister of Education.
