3a. Trim Place
The school originally had a frontage to Victoria Road but after road widening a remnant section became a small public park, now Trim Place, with a magnificent camphor laurel that was already a mature tree in 1943. During the Second World War, air raid trenches were excavated beneath this tree.
Trim Place is named after James (Jim) Trim, a popular teacher who taught at the school from 1915 to 1959. Within the park is a Seiko civic clock on a tall stand. Beneath it is a time capsule, buried in 1986 and to be opened in 2036.
