Newcastle State School opened in May 1887. In 1955, the school closed, and the building was used by the local repertory club who purchased the property in 1959. After the Methodist church was demolished in 1962, to make way for the standard gauge railway line, the church used the former school. In May 1993 after fire destroyed the new Toodyay School, the building was again used as s school until temporary classrooms were provided while the school was rebuilt
The building is now a private residence
