The New Central School, on Lorne Avenue between Fifth and Sixth streets, was constructed in 1891, supervised by Frederick J. Chubb, to replace the former Old Central School on Tenth Street. It operated until June 1970 when its students were transferred to the former Brandon Collegiate. The building was demolished in 1971.
