Historic Sites of Manitoba: Landerville School No. 1888 (RM of Lac du Bonnet)

The Landerville School District was organized formally in June 1917 and a one-room, wood frame schoolhouse operated at SW35-15-10E in the Rural Municipality of Lac du Bonnet. The district was dissolved in 1966 and its area became part of the Agassiz School Division.

Among the teachers of Landerville School were Stanislas “Stanley” Pitre (?-1921) and Ignatius Joseph Zaborniak.
