History

Metchosin Schoolhouse is the first school building opened in British Columbia after the confederation. The school was opened in 1872 and reopened over 100 years later in 1972 as a museum. It is one of the oldest heritage-driven artifacts with a deeply rooted support system within the community.

Metchosin School Museum is a great place to explore the community’s history of education.
