| 説明 | Booleroo Whim settlement was based around the government well sunk in the 1850s. The well or whim was last used in 1938 and mainly swept away in a flood in 1940. The district around the whim had a blacksmith shop, several houses a school and the Bethlehems Lutheran Church and the Wesleyan Methodist church. The local blacksmith Mr Hinton from Pekina also ran the Post Office. The first farmers as opposed to pastoralists arrived at Booleroo Whim in 1876. Wesleyan church services were conducted in the woolshed of Booleroo Station from 1876 until the church was erected in 1880. The porch was added to the Methodist Church in 1911. It is locally known as McCallums Church as that family supported it greatly. The first Booleroo Whim School opened in 1880 on a shed on the former Booleroo Station. From 1880 to 1883 the school was held in the Wesleyan Methodist Church. A school room was built in 1883. The school finally closed in 1941. The school name was changed from Boleroo Township school to Mount View School in 1894. it ws demolished in 1974. |
