" During the year the attendance at the Main School has maintained an average of 44. The attendance at the Side School, opened on the Ist of April, hag been satisfactory, and during the present year will no doubl; show a considerable increase. The Inspector's report on this school was very satisfactory ; that- of the Main School, in a great measure attributable to irregular attendance, not at all satisfactory. Tho accounts have been audited by Mr Wm. Jacobson, and found correct. During tho year the fences about the Main School have been kept in order, a culvert put in at the gate, and the porch filled up to nearly a level with the school door. The gymnastic apparatus has fallen to decay, but timber is on the way from Christchurch to put it in order."
