GROUP TRAVEL FOR 500 N.Z. SCHOOL CHILDREN
VISIT TO AUSTRALIA AT CHRISTMAS

Five hundred New Zealand schoolchildren will fly the Tasman to spend three ' Weeks in Australia under a group travel scheme during the coming Christmas holidays. If accommodation can be arranged here, 500 Australian children will make a similar tour of New Zealand.
It will be the biggest organised “airlift” of holiday-makers in the history of Tasman aviation. The eastern States division of the 50-year-old Young Australia League is the sponsor. The deputy-director for the eastern States division (Mr E. G. RopeS*) said at Auckland that a prospectus would be circulated to New Zealand schqols through the Education Department soon.
