The Old School House, also known as TOSH, is a historical icon within the Village. It was originally constructed as the residence for the school Head Teacher (now known as the Principal) in 1916 and was moved to its current site at 17 Obi Obi Rd in 1997 following community pressure. The Department of Education at that time had the building marked for demolition or removal but were persuaded to liaise with the Maroochy Shire Council so that the building could be used by the Mapleton community as a Community Centre.

Since 1987, MADCA has leased the building from the Maroochy Shire and Sunshine Coast Regional Councils on behalf of the community. During this life it has been a meeting venue, housed the art and craft gallery ‘Enigmas”, acted as the boutique ‘Katie Rose’ for the Sunshine Coast Hospice and lately as the 'Op Shop' for RangeCare.

MADCA maintains the gardens surrounding the buildings. Currently MADCA is also responsible for the maintenance of the building. The Pavillon at the rear of the site overlooks one of the iconic Lilyponds and available to the community to use. It is a beautiful site suitable for small gatherings. To use the BBQ please contact MADCA by email: enquiries@madca.com.au.
