‘Our school is named after the plane in which Sir Charles Kingsford-Smith completed his epic flight from Oakland, San Francisco, to cross the Australian coast at Black Head early on the morning of Saturday 9th June, 1928.
Often described as the greatest flight in aviation history,
Smithy's skill is remembered with pride with the completion of this very
practical monument, Southern Cross School’.
