Manhattan Park Junior Public School (GR. JK-06)

Manhattan Park Junior Public School opened in 1956. The school received its name from the adjoining park located near the centre of the community it serves. In an era when most schools went up to Grade 8, the school originally opened as a Junior School with Kindergarten to Grade 5. Grade 6 was added in the late 1960s.
Manhattan Park is a school with an enrolment of close to 125 students. In addition there are also two Intensive Support Programs:  a Primary Diagnostic Kindergarten and a Primary Developmental Disability Class.
