| INFO | CHILDHOOD STORY of living in the schoolhouse. Winifred Cook Lade's father Herbert Cook was the new head teacher at Traralgon in 1917. The house for the teacher and his family was attached to the school and was much too small for the family. Her father partitioned a portion of the schoolroom for bedrooms for his family. When Winifred and her siblings caught the measles, they were embarrassed by the fact that the school children could stand on their desks and look over the partition to see them in their beds.
