History
Following the establishment of a settlement there about 1890, the locality was named Ilkley after Ilkey in Yorkshire, England, the home town of the local preacher Joseph Kitson.[1]
Ilkley Provisional School opened on 25 November 1901, becoming Ilkley State School on 1 January 1909. In 1924, it briefly became a part-time school sharing a teacher with Chevallum State School. Ilkley continued a full-time school until its final closure in 1964.[2]

gollark: It's a shame making an emulator is impractical.
gollark: WRONG. QualityBot is owner.
gollark: That is better, yes.
gollark: Ignore the foolish LyricLyists.
