Fanning School at Cabot Park

Phone (902) 836-8945

Named after Governor Fanning, it was built in 1794. This schoolhouse was very unique at the time because it was a two-storey building. People were still being taught in the schoolhouse in 1969; and, in 1993, it was moved to Cabot Beach day-use area and was restored.

Nearby attractions include the Kensington Railyards and Welcome Centre, Malpeque Bay Sea Kayak Tours, and The Keir Memorial Museum.

Cabot Beach Provincial Park is located within the Green Gables Shore touring region.
