A proud red brick building stands majestically on Balgowan Road. This is Balgowan Primary School, a place of learning and laughter for children aged 4 to 11. It was built in 1914-15, but not for the purpose you might think. Balgowan initially served as an auxiliary war hospital during World War I. Over 5,000 Eastern Command soldiers received care within its walls. Today, a memorial stands proudly in the main school hall commemorating this important chapter in the school’s history. By 1920, Balgowan returned to its original purpose as a school. The school’s story is interwoven with the history of the local community, a strong connection that continues to this day. Balgowan Primary School has been a beacon of education for generations of children, a place where dreams take flight and young minds are nurtured.
