These plans are officially held by National Archives of Australia.
So to be able to see a more clear and more informative plan of this hostels site then please visit the National Archives of Australia.

Richard, can you tell us how to search for these plans on the National Archives of Australia's site.

I lived in 81D and 83d Nissan Hut. Sandra Antouny (ne paterson) lived in the other end of the Hut in 81a and b (big family), but a few years before me. Anyone else remember the hut number?

Tks for putting them together Len, saves me doing it. Im going to make an effort to embelish that drawing. eg, the soccer field, the shop, the laundry, the nursery (both of them) etc.
Turns out that Marion Gilbert also stayed in Nissan 83 as well! Few years different though.
