If you know these names, then sometime during the past 100 years you have been associated with Clare High School.
Clare High School (CHS) was established in 1921 at 137 Main North Road (now the Clare Primary School site) before moving to the current site on the corner of Blyth Road and Elliott Street in 1971.
To celebrate this milestone, the school is hosting a ‘Centenary Celebration’ in September this year.
Current principal Sharryn Daly is very excited to be part of history in 2021 as Clare High School celebrates 100 years.
“With the many changes and upgrades to our wonderful grounds and facilities, it is timely we get the opportunity to celebrate with our community,” Sharryn said.
