History & geography

History

The name Ballidu is a hybrid name, coming from "balli", a Noongar word meaning "on this side" or "in this direction", and "Duli" after a nearby rockhole. The townsite was gazetted in 1914, with street names of the original settlers. A primary school opened in the town on 4 September 1922, moving into permanent premises in 1924. Ballidu is a stop on the Wongan Hills to Mullewa railway line, which opened in 1915. The bulk wheat bins in town opened in 1940.
