Notes
Craigflower School was opened in 1855. The school was originally intended to serve families employed by the Puget Sound Agricultural Company at Craigflower Farm, a few miles from Fort Victoria. The original school operated until 1911. It was replaced by another school building, located across the road from the old school house. That building was demolished and replaced by the present-day Craigflower Elementary School (1963).
