History

In 1946, the Miling Infant Health Centre officially opened. Wongan Hills was one of the 6 districts contributing towards the expenses of a vehicle for the clinic sister to travel to each of those districts. In 1952, the Roads Board notified the Wongan Hills District of the clinic that if they vested any lands with the Roads Board, the Roads Board would donate £1000 on a £ for £ basis. The Clinic Committee sought the balance from the Lotteries Commission. The Committee finally arranged their own guarantors for £500
