Situated in Campbell River Regional Park the Lochiel Schoolhouse is an excellent representation of life in the early 20th century. Today it is utilized by the Langley Centennial Museum to show what going to school was like when it first opened.

From the Langley Centennial Museum School Program brochure:

The costumed interpreter, in the role of Miss Lomas the school marm, takes the students back in time to become the class of 1924! Students have the opportunity to participate in this school by taking on the roles and responsibilities of pioneer students. Obedience, good manners and hard work are insisted upon - but students have a good time despite the high standards!

A great way to bring a bit of British Columbia's history to life!
