SCHOOL AMALGAMATION.
(To the Editor of the Evening Star.) Sir,' —In this morning's issue of your contemporary,appears a letter from the Central Board of Education to the Chairman of the Waiotahi School Committee, and the Advertiser remarks thereon that great anxiety prevailed, and the conduct of the .Board condemned, until enquiry elicited that only committees were to be amalgamated, that, in fact, Waiotahi was to swallow up Tararu, and Tararu was not to swallow up Waiotahi; certainly Waibtahl has; something to be thankful . for. But to the point, why this amalgamation of two districts only. Would it not be far better to amalgamate all the districts into one strong committee, with extended powers and local representatives? The thing is quite practicable, ' and; I believe, 1 would conduce to thewelfare of the children on the Thames. I do not like this tinkering. Kauaeranga will next swallow tip Parawai, and nothing but dissatisfaction and disorder will prevail. Let us go the whole hog or nothing.—Yours faithfully, , Equity.
Grahamstown, 9th Jan., '78.
