New Zealand - Wellington - Naenae College - Form 5D - 1985 Naenae College - The school was opened in 1953 to serve the Naenae state housing development, although the school is located in the suburb of Avalon - Naenae College was a prototype for a standardised building design to be used at other new secondary schools across New Zealand. The school was built with long two-story wings of classrooms facing onto corridors, constructed with reinforced concrete on the first level and timber above that. However, construction of the so-called "Naenae type school" was too slow and expensive for a large scale building programme, and subsequently the Naenae type was largely replaced with a single-storey all-timber version known as the "Henderson type school" - Naenae College does not operate an enrolment scheme, so the school is open to enrolment from any eligible student
