Bellenden S.D. No. 2813



A pioneer school monument near Invermay, Saskatchewan.


I like these big chunky concrete monuments often seen in the Saskatchewan countryside.


A more personal touch...a handmade wooden sign.


The school was open for over fifty years.  When it closed the kids were bussed to Invermay or Rama.

Photographed on March 20, 2020.

  1. I really like this memorial - the school is long gone apparently, but the cairn and the flag are nice. The trees too.

    1. Thanks MA. The school building is long gone but that cairn is going to last a long time.

    1. Yes it is. Nice to see the homemade wooden sign along with the official monument (and a flag)!
