Termeil had a public school from 1885 to 1941 and 1943 to 1955, generally classified as a "public" school, but sometimes as a "provisional" school.[5]
During the 2019–20 Australian bushfire season, a number of large fires merged and threatened Termeil, with many residents unable to evacuate and forced to shelter in place for several days due to surrounding firefronts to the north, south and west of the village.[6][7]
