NELSON PLAN FOR HIGH SCHOOLS.—This model gives a good impression of the style of buildings recently adopted for new post-primary schools. The assembly hall, prominent in the foreground, is part of the quadrangle of administration and other offices. The double-storeyed blocks to the rear are classrooms and laboratories. The buildings to the left are for practical subjects requiring workshops. A modification of this lay-out is being used for the new Burnside High School in Memorial avenue. The model was shown to the Post-Primary Schools’ Council last evening.
