History

Rangemore State School opened on 17 March 1913. In 1917 it was downgraded to a half-time provisional school in conjunction with King's Tent Provisional School (meaning the two schools shared a single teacher). In 1918 King's Tent Provisional School closed and Rangemore once again became a full-time state school. It was finally closed circa 1962.[4]

In the 2016 census Rangemore had a population of 3 people.[1]
