THE SCHOOL AGE
ENROLMENT OF CHILDREN.
[By Telegraph—Per Press Association)
AUCKLAND, May 22
Although the primary schorfls reopen on Monday, no official information has reached Auckland concerning the raising of the school age from five to six years, it is expected that a. number of parents will endeavour, on Monday, to enrol children below the age of six.
The chairman of the Education Board said that as it had not heard from the department, which probably had b'en rushed, it was unable to instruct head masters. They however, would be well advised to postpone enrolments until instructions are received.
POSITION IN CHRISTCHURCH. “We have not yet had any notification from the Department in regard to the matter,” said Mr C. Kirk, secretary to the Canterbury Education Board when interviewed. “Until we do get information to the contrary, we are assuming that we can accept children .under the ago of six years.”
