Program from the official opening of Oxbow Park Public School, Friday, November 2, 1956Context
From information contained in school photo albums:
“Oxbow Park School was built in 1956, with many attending students transferring from the Wasaga Beach School. It is located on land backing onto both 39th and 40th Streets and has had several additions built since the 1960’s, including 6 classrooms, library, and enlarged gym and new administrative offices. Oxbow Park School twinned with Byrnes Avenue School from 1974-78, to enable the sharing of facilities. In 1979, the schools separated, only to be twinned again, with Oxbow Park School renamed Worsley Elementary school in 1994. The school is still thriving today with a fluctuating student population of over 500 students.”Acquisition
