Early teachers using this desk were Jessie Murray, New Brunswick, Jenny Sly- a local girl, Eva McQueen and Ruth McConnell, both of Gladstone. Bear Creek School consolidated with Berton S.D. in 1918 so the desk was brought to Berton School in Helston, Manitoba. Consolidation was dissolved after four years and Bear Creek built a new school. The desk stayed at Berton until 1962 when it was replaced with a new one.Collection
