A Lutheran congregation formed in 1899 and in November 1890 opened St Paul's Lutheran Church. In 1991, due to differences of opinion on religious issues, the church separated from the Lutheran Church of Australia and, in 1992, joined with a number of other like-minded Lutheran congregations to form the Australian Evangelical Lutheran Church.

Local residents requested a school in 1901. Tenders were called to construct the school in May 1902. Boah Peak Provisional School opened on 8 September 1902 under head teacher Albert Amos Braysher.
