Panania Mania 2026

Historical Display
Ever wondered what going to school was like 70ish years ago?! Created by our dedicated teachers at Panania Public School, it showcases what school life was like in earlier days and a time capsule which was unearthed in 2023. Back by popular demand, join us for a journey into the past!


1926
East Hills Public School
A school first existed on the grounds in 1926
(97 years ago). This was called East Hills Public School and used buildings on the Lambeth Street end of the current campus.
Renamed
Panania Public School
Eventually a school was built at East Hills itself and the campus became Panania School but was separated into a boy's school at the Picnic Point Road end and a girl's school at the Lambeth Street end with a fence separating the two.

1953
School becomes Co-Ed
​​
In 1953 the current building was erected with further buildings to come in the 1950's and 1960's as the gender-separated schools joined as one campus.
1988
Time Capsule
A time capsule was buried in 1988, and unearthed in 2023. There were other things added for the 50 and 60-year anniversaries. The time capsule contains, old uniforms, copies of the school newsletter from 35 years ago; and letters from past students (some of which have students here now!).
