INFANT EDUCATION
WORK OF THE KINDERGARTEN Authorities agree tliat much of the foundations of character are laid in children during the preschool years pi' from '3 to yearns. During the.se impressionable years the habits and characteristics are. often moulded into permanent form. Unless the much needed training is forthcoming in the home parents are often greatly assisted by the work of kindergarten schools, those institutions which act as a halfway house and a stepping stone be<tween school and the home, between work and play, between education and relaxation. All too little is heard of the vital part played by these schools and Whakatane may consider itself fortunate in that it, numbers in its citizens one who has the necessary qualifications to run such a school and to infuse the correct training necessary for the establishment of good habits and understanding. Mrs Rowan's Kindergarten will open on February Btli providing some 20 pupils are available. Parents interested arc asked to contact the 'BEACON."
