Auckland users - 1970s memories - children's camp/home on a slope, Rangitoto views?
#1
Cast your collective minds back and see if you can fill in many blanks please.  I lived in Sainsbury Rd, near St Lukes from 1976-1977.  My aunt and uncle visited our family, and one afternoon they took us kids to what I remember (and I may be completely wrong), was a school or boarding school or camp for deaf children during Christmas holidays.  There were no kids there.  I feel the site had a view of Rangitoto, but I don't recall if it was from the North Shore or south of the harbour bridge.  The buildings sat up the hill, with a lawn/field in front, and a budget playground to the left as you looked at the island view.  

Aunt and Uncle went on to work for the Salvation Army for a couple of years, so maybe it was a SA camp or something similar.  I've asked them but they can't remember where they took us to for the afternoon.  

Any ideas on where it could have been?
