MR A.H. GREENSHIELDS' "LANARK HOUSE" 1876-1897
In 1876 Mr Alexander H Greenshields built this house at a cost of ?4000. He named it "Lanark House" - no doubt after his birth place, Lanark, Scotland. Greenshields had come to Kapunda in 1864 as an assistant in the general store owned by Messrs Stobie and Thomson. Eventually he set up his own large and profitable drapery business in Main Street.
He died in 1897. Part of his obituary gives us a picture of his prominence and influence .....
"As a townsman, he took a very prominent position. It is safe to say that no worthy object was without his influential countenance or financial assistance or both. He did nothing in a half-hearted way ....."
In fact he was a member of the Floricultural Society, Baptist Church, Dutton Park Committee of Management, Institute Committee, Municipal Council, Brass Band and Defence Rifle Club.
However, his main interest was probably the development of the grounds and conservatories of Lanark House, which occupied nearly four acres. A detailed report in a Kapunda Herald of 1886 describes the conservatories, fern houses, shade houses, lawns and trees. The conservatories alone contained 5,000 pot plants.
SIR SIDNEY KIDMAN'S "ERINGA" 1897-1921
Sidney Kidman seems to have bought the house in about 1900 and re-named it "Eringa". He used it as his home base until he donated it to the Education Department in 1921.
He was born at Athelstone in 1857 on his parents' farm. He arrived at Kapunda with his famed one-eyed horse when only a lad of thirteen, having run away from home. His first night in Kapunda was spent at the Prince of Wales Hotel and he journeyed on the next day to make his fortune in the vast and barren lands to the north.
Aided by a legacy of about ?400 from his grandfather, Kidman eventually built up a land and stock empire that saw him either owning or leasing over one hundred cattle and sheep stations. The total area of the stations was in excess of 100,000 square miles, an area greater than that of the State of Victoria.
Kidman's annual horse sales at Kapunda attracted much attention. The Kapunda Herald Illustrated Supplement of September 2, 1904 recorded that "Australia's record horse sale conducted on account of one owner" had opened at Kapunda. Messrs Coles and Thomas had submitted the first of the batch of 1,300 horses on account of Mr Sidney Kidman, of Kapunda. Mr C.J. Coles wielded the hammer.
Sir Sidney died in Adelaide in 1935.
KAPUNDA HIGH SCHOOL 1921-TODAY
Kapunda High School has existed since 1907 as an additional section of the Primary School with its own teaching staff. The transfer to the new building was completed when Sidney Kidman officially opened the new premises on 12 October 1922.
The exterior of the building has not changed much over the years. Internally however, rooms have been frequently changed to fit school use. The most recent changes have involved the foyer which has seen the addition of a reception desk, display cabinet and doorway, as well as carpet. The changes are in sympathy with the existing woodwork.
The original function of many rooms can still be detected..... the Principal's Office, the Butler's Pantry retains its impressive cupboards. The white tiles of Lady Kidman's bathroom still dominate the Library Office. Elsewhere, the commanding fireplaces, ceilings, stained glass, cast iron lace and marble steps remain as lasting monuments to the times of Greenshields and Kidman.
Kapunda High School is a relatively small country High School with a current enrolment of around 400. We are geographically located 80 kilometres north east of the Adelaide GPO between the Barossa and Clare Valleys in the town of Kapunda, Australia's oldest mining town. We are amongst the oldest secondary schools in rural South Australia and celebrated our centenary in 2007.
The school draws students from a wide socio-economic cross-section, with a wide range of values and abilities. Our students come from the Kapunda township and district as well as the communities of Freeling, Roseworthy, Wasleys, Greenock and Gawler.
We pride ourselves on our ability to offer a wide range of curriculum and extra curricula activities to our students delivered by a conscientious and dedicated staff who work closely with our parents and wider community.
