Its first home was in Huntingtower Road, Armadale. During the next two decades, the school expanded to a point where it was seen as necessary to sell the Huntingtower Road property and move to its present site in Mount Waverley. The present campus was opened in 1954. In 1974, the school decided to open its doors to all faiths and is now a school with a Christian Science foundation but has a multi-denominational student body. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Huntingtower School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
