Northcote Farm School

The Northcote Farm School (Also known as the Lady Northcote Farm School) was a farm school built at Glenmore, near Bacchus Marsh, Victoria, in 1937.

It was constructed for the education of child migrants, of whom it received 273 from 1937 to 1979 (it was closed from 1944 to 1948 due the decline in child migrants during World War II). It was shut down in 1979 due to the redistribution of funds.

After its closure, it operated as a school camp.
