STATE SCHOOL ATTENDANCE.
A RECORD ROLL. At last night’s School Committee meeting, Mr Purrie, head teacher, reported that the average attendance for the four weeks to June 10th was 305, out of an average roll of 404. During the month, 19 were admitted and three withdrawn, the net increase being 16. During a week of wet weather for the week ending May 24th, the average fell to 349, the percentage of attendance for that week in the preparatory division falling to 80 per cent. Yesterday’s attendance reached a record, viz., 389. An average for the year of 361 will raise the school from its present grade, Vc, to Yd, and entitle the school to an extra, trainee being appointed. The average to date is 365. The head teacher was congratulated by the Committee upon the Improved attendance and general prosperity of the school.
