The first school at the growing community was built in 1908.

A post office also opened at the community in 1868.

However, their works aimed at the individual, rather than the community.

About half the students at community colleges drop out before their second year.

Not everyone at the community supported the transition, and many left.

Development at the community began in 1992 however secure land title to the site has not yet been received.

How does this approach differ from the traditional way of looking at communities in need?

The name of the school was chosen after a vote by pupils at the schools and the local community.

As of 2011 the hall is not regularly used and the council are looking at other potential community uses for the building.

In addition, it also had talk shows on weekends aimed at the community.
