This new campus is located be- tween the Mt. Edward and Brack- ley Point roads. and new roads will be cut to link it to already estab- lished highways

The new buildings at Winsloe and East Royalty will each provide for three rooms. and will be locat- ed on fields adjoining the sites of the pruent schools.
