The increasing density of housing around the Lougheed Shopping Centre area resulted in a spike in enrolment at Lyndhurst Elementary School. As a result, in 1965, Cameron Road Elementary was built to alleviate overcrowding issues. The school opened with 151 pupils. The school was expanded in 1969 when three classrooms were added and again in 1971 when eights more rooms and a library were built.
The Lyndhurst Elementary School was built in 1953 to replace the previous school - the Hamilton Road School - which had served the community since 1910.
