History[edit]


Initially, the area was split between the Meckering and Kellerberrin Road Districts. On 30 June 1911, the Korrelocking Road District was gazetted, covering Trayning, Wyalkatchem and parts of Mount Marshall and Dowerin. This lasted just nine months, becoming the Ninghan Road District in March 1912. Wyalkatchem split away in 1920, and Ninghan split in 1923 and absorbed parts of Nungarin to become Kununoppin-Trayning Road District and Mount Marshall Road District.


On 1 July 1961, it became the Shire of Trayning-Kununoppin-Yelbeni under the Local Government Act 1960, and then was renamed Shire of Trayning on 10 September 1965.[2][3]
