Description and history
The footprint of the school is typical of the period with a long main block and centered rear wing with an auditorium/gym. The two story blonde brick building sits about 100 feet (30 m) from the street behind a grass lawn with mature trees.[2]
The school was named the Bush Avenue Grammar School when it opened on January 22, 1940. During the 1947–8 school year it was renamed Brame Grammar School. Since the beginning of the 1953–4 term it has been named after Luzon Strausbury Rugg who was principal from 1943 to 1949.[2]
