The Industrial Home for Girls was established by legislation in 1912 to house girls under the age of 16 who had been convicted of a crime, or who have been shown to be vicious or incorrigible and beyond her parents' control. The school was opened in 1914, on a site which later became 800 Cassiar Street, Vancouver. In 1959 the school was moved to 3655 Willingdon Avenue in Burnaby, and became known as the Willingdon School for Girls, later abbreviated to the Willingdon School. During the early years the Home was administered by the Department of the Attorney General. It was transferred to the administration of the Department of the Provincial Secretary ca.1934. In 1937 the 1912 Act was repealed and replaced with An Act respecting the Industrial School for Girls. The Home was renamed the Industrial School for Girls. In 1946 the Industrial School for Girls was transferred from the Department of the Provincial Secretary to the administration of the Social Welfare Branch of the new Department of Health and Welfare. In 1963 the Industrial School Acts were repealed and replaced with the Training Schools Act. In 1969 the Training Schools Act was repealed. The Willingdon School was closed in 1973.
