Central Public School Community Centre

Central Public School is one of the oldest surviving public schools in Brampton. Continuously used for educational purposes for nearly 130 years, the site has now been repurposed as a community centre. Interestingly, the design was based on a courthouse. The focal point of the building is the main doorway framed by decorative carved stone with an oversized transom.
