JUBILEE KINDERGARTEN

BREAK-UP PARTY. Miss Masters’s Jubilee Kindergarten held its annual Christmas and breakup party on Friday afternoon, there being a merry gathering. The room was prettily decorated, pride of place being given to a Christmas tree. The children provided an excellent programme, and after they had distributed to their mothers presents (which they themselves had made) and received gifts from Father Christmas, they sat down to tea. The mothers and their friends were also entertained to afternoon tea. The programme was as follows:— Items by the Percussion Band comprising all the children; hymns, “Shine Out. O Blessed Star” and “Away in the Manger”; nursery rhymes. “Sing a Song of Sixpence”; “Baa Baa Black Sheep," “Jack and Jill,” “Hickery Dickery Dock,” “Rock-a-bye Baby,” “Humpty Dumpty,” “Little Miss Muffet” and “Three Blind Mice.” The children also sang “Hot Cross Buns.” Circle game. “How’d you do, my partner"; songs, “See the Pretty Bunny,” “Once I saw a Little Bird” “Tiddely Winks and Tiddely Wee.” “Hurrah for the Sailor Boy,” "Down at the Station"; recitations. “I Had a Little Doggie"; musical rhythm games. “See Our Little Hands,” "Fairies in the Storm,” “The Scarecrow,” “Doing What the Music Says," and “Musical Flops.” The manner in which the children entered whole-heartedly into everything, and the excellent manner in which they presented their items provided evidence of the careful training they had received.
