From 1961 classes were indentified by codes which derive from the first letter of the teachers' surnames: C=Connery, E=Etherington, I=Irwin, L=Logan, M=McLachlan (1963), Mace (1965), R=Ray (1961), Reed (1964 - 1965), S=Stanners, T=Tan (1964), Turner (1959 - 1961, 1965). In 1963 Mr and Mrs Gilbert were both teaching - W=Mr G. and G=Mrs G.
Prior to 1963 John Leech, art dealers, Auckland, framed the photos. From 1963 onward they were framed by Spooners of Wyndam Street, Auckland.
Chronological order by year and alphabetical order by class code (see Notes below) within each year.
