Description du lieu patrimonial
Boggy Creek School is a Municipal Heritage Property occupying 0.2 hectares in the Rural Municipality of Sherwood No. 159, located ten kilometres northwest of the city of Regina. The property features a one-room brick school that was built in 1923.
Valeur patrimoniale
The heritage value of the Boggy Creek School site lies in its use as a centre for local education. Since 1889 the site has held two separate school buildings, of which the existing brick structure is the second. Closed as a school in 1965, the building was later used for several years by the Regina Board of Education as a classroom for its outdoor education program.
The Boggy Creek School is also valued for its architecture. It is a representative example of the Waterman-Waterbury Company’s standard one-room school plan. A majority of the one-room schools built in Saskatchewan between 1912 and the mid-1920s were constructed according to plans supplied by this Minneapolis-based company. Built out of brick rather than the more common wood-frame, the Boggy Creek School speaks to the optimism of the local school board in 1923 when it selected a school design.
