Historic Sites of Manitoba: Botany School No. 486 (Municipality of Souris-Glenwood)The Botany School District was established formally in February 1887 and a school building was erected on the northeast corner of 12-7-22 west of the Principal Meridian, in what is now the Municipality of Souris-Glenwood. The district was dissolved in January 1960 and its remaining students went to Souris Consolidated School No. 2388. The school building is no longer present at the site, being replaced by a commemorative cairn, topped by a replica.
