Public School, Stoke. This school stands on a fine site at North Moeraki Downs. The original building, which was erected in 1868, having been pulled down, was replaced by a new building of wood and iron. It takes its name from Stoke Grange, near Moeraki railway station. There is accommodation for thirty-six children; the number on the roll is eighteen, and the average attendance fifteen. There is a school residence of six rooms on the property, which consists of an acre, and is well planted with ornamental trees.
