However, the Education Board is negotiating for another, site more • centrally situated.
The Landing road site, an area •of 7 acres, was taken under the Public Works Act early this year, and the proclamation was the culmination of about ’ two and a half years of effort and negotiation, by the committee and the Board. But hopes of an early start with • the new school were dashed when the Maori owners op the land appealed to the Prime Minister, with the result that the proclamation was annulled.
