Centenary Year Celebrated
Blue Mountains Grammar School celebrates a centenary of excellence in education.
Major Expansion of Grounds
A number of changes happened in this decade including the construction of the current entrance via Matcham Ave as well as the D J Mulford Sports Centre opened and Art and Design building opened by John Olsen.
Bungawarra Wilderness Educational Centre
Bungawarra Wilderness Education Centre was made available for the School’s use for the purpose of annual camp trips and wilderness education programs.
School Starts Enrolling Girls
The School became co-educational upon the commencement of the first girls and became known as Blue Mountains Grammar School.
Lake Street Classrooms Built
The School grew in numbers to warrant the purchase of a Boarding House, Blue Horizons (now the Guest House Silvermere), and this was followed with the building classrooms on land opposite in Lake Street. Both these were used for Senior Students until 1965 when the Junior students were brought across to Lake Street and the Seniors moved back to the current site.
