SCHOOL AT TAINUI
GRANT FOR SITE Intimation regarding a "rant for the purchase of three and a-lialf acres of Mr F. G. Brookes’s property facing Tahuna road for a new school site at Tainui was received from the Education Department at this morning’s meeting of the Education Board. The Chairman (Air J. Wallace) said that the school at Tainui would be a four-roomed building. The Tomahawk School would bo closed, according to the present intention, and the children conveyed to the new school at Tainui. “In regard to Tomahawk,” continued Air Wallace, “we might try to buy another section for future contingencies, but the policy of the department is not to provide for future contingencies.” He thought the sooner the new school was erected the better it would be, for it was a disgrace to have a school like Tomahawk, with forty-seven children in it. The department’s letter was received.
