East Seaham is a primarily rural suburb of the Port Stephens Local Government Area in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia.[1][2] It is situated on the east bank of the Williams River, opposite Glen Oak and Seaham.[5] The Greswick Public School operated in East Seaham between 1895 and 1937, supported by the development of farms in and around East Seaham. The schoolhouse was moved to Seaham after a bushfire in 1939 and operated as Seaham Public School until the 1960s.[6]
