The school was built between 1911 and 1912 by Ducan McLean. The building was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 1 March 2002.[1] HistorySituated at the confluence of the Murray and Darling rivers, Wentworth was settled in 1840, town surveyed in 1958 and named in honour of explorer William Charles Wentworth. At turn of the century, Wentworth was the largest river port in the country, docking up to 100 paddle steamers a month.[1] St Ignatius High School, described as a "select" school, was opened by the Sisters of Mercy in 1892 and a boarding school for girls opened at the convent in 1898. Students traveled from surrounding areas, sometimes over many days, by horse and buggy or riverboat, and attended St Ignatius School each day.[1] A new schoolhouse was built in 1911 as a tall, wooden structure on the west side of the convent, where the nuns taught many extra subjects, such as languages, bookkeeping, painting, wax modeling art, needlework, singing, pianoforte, violin, etc.[1][2][3] DescriptionThe building is an unusual symmetrical structure of weatherboard construction. The single room structure has a centrally located entrance porch on the northern side. The main gambrel roof is clad with corrugated iron sheeting and the little gable over the porch has simple timber decoration. The building is supported on timber posts set in the ground. There is a curved, embossed iron window hood over the northern porch window. The former school room has a boarded ceiling and much of the internal joinery is intact. The large main windows have the appearance of double hung windows however, the sashes operate as casements. The building has been recently restored and repaired. A brick fireplace and chimney on the western side has been replaced with a replica. The original two- tone colour scheme has been rendered.[1][4] ConditionAs at 29 June 2000, the property was in excellent condition following the 1988-89 restorations.[1] The integrity of the property remains as no significant renovations have changed the original structure from that of the design in the early nineteenth century.
