Historic Sites of Manitoba: Seeburn School No. 452 (RM of Silver Creek)

The Seeburn School District was established in July 1885 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at SW4-20-26W in the Rural Municipality of Silver Creek. In 1967, the district was dissolved and its area was added to the Angus School District. It later became part of the Pelly Trail School Division.

Among the teachers who worked at Seeburn School was Mary Hamilton (1885).
