AUSTRALIAN SCHOOLBOYS
Party To Visit New Zealand A party of 30 high school boys from Canberra Grammar School will arrive tomorrow by air from Sydney. It will be the second time a party from the school has visited New Zealand. During a two weeks bus tour of both islands, the boys will study the agricultural methods practised in New Zealand. Most will be familiar with the problems of raising sheep on the dry plains inland from Canberra, or on the wet coastal highlands of southern New South Wales, and their special interest in New Zealand will be to investigate the methods of rearing sheep in widely differing conditions.
The party will be met by Mr F. W. Penberthy. second master at the Cathedral Grammar School and a former science teacher at Canberra Grammar School. On Sunday morning they will visit Lincoln College and in the afternoon they will visit the farm of Mr N. Finney, of Amberley.
