This is a mixed school housed in temporary buildings, one of these
is an iron structure, in which there are 5 classrooms together with a
cloakroom and lavatories. Three of the classes are accommodated
in St. Luke's Mission Church.
The School has 2 playgrounds, one for the boys and the other
for the girls and infants. The playgrounds are not asphalted and the
surface drainage is obviously insufficient. During the winter months
the playgrounds can hardly be used for any purpose.
The sanitary conveniences are of the trough type, and consist
of 7 compartments for the girls and 6 compartments and urinal
accommodation measuring 14 linear feet for the boys. The closets
and urinals are automatically flushed. The classrooms in the main
building are heated by open fireplaces, and the church is heated by a
gas radiator. ,
In each classroom is a louvre opening in the roof.
These premises will shortly be discontinued as school buildings.
