Wonga Park Community Cottage History GroupPlan (sub-item) - Plan re moving State School to corner of Yarra and Brysons Roads
A plan prepared by Mr. A.J. Upton (secretary and convenor of the Wonga Park School Committee) in about 1920, when residents were pressing for a new school to be located at the junction of Bryson’s and Yarra Road, the object being to combine the Wonga Park and Yarra Road Schools. Although the proposal was eventually dropped, this plan shows who lived in Wonga Park in the 1920’s and where they lived. [It is likely that this plan dates from some time after 1920.]
