The St. Andrew's Day Care Centre originated in an idea of Fred Hyndman 's that was developed by the Diocesan Church Society and the provincial government. The government supplied the teacher and the program, while the Church supplied the building and its equipment. The Centre was made over from a small mission church that had failed to attract support from the community and was closed. After the renovation of the building a generation of children from a depressed area were prepared for school in daylight hours, and at night St . Andrew's became a community centre. Meetings were held that led to projects that rehoused many of the inhabitants. It is said that at one time St . Andrew's had the only bathtub in the district, and local residents made much use of it. Wakes were also held in the Centre. Yet the local people preferred to worship in a pentecostal church that had been built just down the road.
