Voluntary labour and free machinery was used to make a pool of 1,800 sq ft with dressing sheds and neat lawns and flower beds. The lagoon used previously for swimming had become particularly unhealthy since the effluent of the Kawerau mills settled there. Chairman of the school committee was Mrs J. L. Huriwaka. Apart from the labour, the committee organized the raising of £900.
