Historic Sites of Manitoba: St. Vincent de Paul School No. 1567 (Ste. Amelie, Municipality of Ste. Rose)
The St. Vincent de Paul School District was established in April 1911 and, as of 1913, a one-room schoolhouse operated at SW16-23-14W in Ste. Amelie in what is now the Municipality of Ste. Rose. It was moved across from the Ste. Amelie Roman Catholic Church in 1942 and a second classroom was added to the north side of the building, to accommodate high school students. In 1961, it became the St. Vincent de Paul Consolidated School. By 1967, it had become part of the Turtle River School Division and the school closed three years later. The former school building was then used as a community centre.
