A PROVISIONAL school for the Lowbank area, first called Holder School, opened in 1913 in a building next to the Lowbank Lutheran Church, and a short time later was renamed Low Bank School. 
The first teacher at the school was William R Pattrick and the original building, owned by Gottlieb Schmidt, was made of galvanised iron and lined with boards.
This building was leased from Mr Schmidt by the Education Department, and in 1918 a new stone building for the school was completed.
In the one classroom was one teacher responsible for children from grades 1 to 7. 
Some of the children lived up to 8km away from the school, and had to walk there and back home each school day. 
Over its short life the school had 21 teachers and provided an education for at least 119 students. 
Some of the students received their full education at the school, while some were only there for a short time. 
The school closed in 1942 due to the low number of students, and the building was given to the Lowbank Lutheran Church, who enlarged it and presently use it as their church hall.
