Hi Pat and List,

I've drawn a blank with this one. There is no school of that name listed in
"Vision and Realisation", which lists all schools, and no place of that name
listed in Blake's "Place Names of Victoria". I did think for a while that
you *could* have been misreading Iona, but the school deosn't appear to have
started there until 1894, and it was a Drouin name then anyway.

Anyone else any ideas???
