COLCL OUG H, A Student from Queen's College, London, and a First-class Certificated Teacher under the Auckland Board of Education, HAS opened this School with the view of placing a sound and thorough English Education within the reach of all girls.

The system-of tuition is that pursued with such good results ia the Ladies' Colleges in England, and the principle of the large State Schools in the United States —that system Tvhich'depends mainly on viva voce teaching, and escliews the obselete classics of a bygone day, using only the moat modern and authentic School Books. Lectures on all useful.subjects will comprise part of the course. Needlework, especially plain needlework, will be taught thoroughly. 5"o Balls or Parties will be given t a yearly Picnic being the only recreation contemplated. Half-yearly examinations.
