==History==
After the Government Trading Concerns Act 1912 was passed in December of that year, several State-operated businesses were established. One of these was State Saw Mills, which commenced with purchasing the South-West Timber Hewers' Co-operative for £80,000. Construction on the State's Number 1 sawmill, later called Deanmill, began in 1913, as did construction of the Number 2 and 3 mills at Big Brook, later called Pemberton.〔 The mills cost an estimated £138,000,〔 and were to provide timber railway sleepers for the Trans-Australian Railway.〔 Construction of the mills was delayed by heavy rainfall, and the railway sleepers were delivered late.〔 Other problems included shipping disputes and the Commonwealth government's price for sleepers.〔
State Saw Mills created a township surrounding the Number 1 mill, called Deanmill after a construction engineer named A. Dean.〔 They followed accepted practice at the time of placing a timber mill in a valley with accommodation and other facilities close by.〔 Deanmill Primary School was built in 1914 by the Public Works Department in association with State Saw Mills. The school initially consisted of a single classroom, administration building and shed, all constructed out of timber.〔
