She was born in 1912.
I also attended GPS, and so has my son.
Mum told me that the flooding from the creek by the school was a problem in accessing the school, and that one child actually drowned.
I’ve seen a great many of the flooded properties in Grange, but not sure if it is a story that might have been inserted in the newspapers at the time.
