Christ's college, Christchurch NZ dining hall 1974
While back-packing around New Zealand, Christ's College was my place of employment for several months--no I wasn't on the faculty staff--I washed dishes. The kitchen is located at the corner-window and the building on the left is the dining hall. The inside of the hall had row upon row of long tables and at the appointed times the hall would fill to capacity with uniformed kids to have their meals. Hanging on the walls were oil paintings depicting all the famous people who had passed through this college as students, including numerous prime ministers. In a crawlspace under the kitchen floor there was graffiti etched in the brick from the late 1800s! Miss Bishop was in charge of kitchen staff.
