LEARNING TO SWIM

Success at Central School As a result of the "Learn-to-Swim" campaign, 57 pupils at the Hastings Central School, mostly in the lower standards, learned tp swim successfully one width or more and dozens of others have learned, but not enough to pass the minimum test of a width. The campaign ended with an apple scramble in the baths, by first the new swimmers and Tien by all swimmers. The thanks of pupils and staff go to Mr C. H. Slater who kindly donated the fruit. The naines of the successful beginners are; Laurace Smith, Ivor Lyndon, A. Tiekner, E. Smith, N. Deacon, N. Hawkins, J. Hawkins/ P. Liddell, R. Webb, Pat Martin, Isobel Parker, Pat Mayo, Jim Taylor, Pat Loekyer, Jane Tate, Ken Tate, Juin Greig, Jean Harris, J. Venables, E.
