PROPOSED EXTENSION OF THE HAUTAPU SCHOOL DISTRICT BOUNDARY.

The householders in the Hautapn sfihool district are very indignant at what they consider the selfish action of the Cambridge School Committee in protesting against the extension of the Hautapu boundary. It wjl} be remembered that at the last orcjinapy meeting qf the committee a resolution was paused, sfcrongly objecting to the proposed alteration of tf)B b,nun4aties on th» grounds. (1) that one first-class school is an essential to the district ; and (2) that the district is now able to niaintain a high-class master, and an efficient staff; an 4 ajsq (3) that the proposed change is neither uecesqary nor desirable and would seriously affect th« attendance afc fche public sshool, The H&ijtapu householders maintain fchafc the reasoqs which the Cambridge committee give ape wrong and altogether misleading. That a first-oiasa school is an essential to the district they quite agree; but they deny that the proposed alteration of the boundaries would in any way militate against t)ie success of the Cambridge Schoo}. YIW fuller contend that the extension of j; he Hautapu bqundary would in no *vsy affepj; the attendance the Cambridge School as stated; and that in the interests of the district the chgnge is both necessary and desirable. In respect to the attendance it is pointed out that of the large number of settlers in the district between Fanthams corner and Gerran's gorngr, fchgre are only one or two who have got the nieatiß to s»n4 (jhsfr children to the Cambridge School, and that* the other people whose children are growing up. and who cannot afford to run a special conveyance to Cambridge everyday, have to keep their children at home. It is for the bene86 (it fcjjepa people that the extension is proposed," Jfc l» PFqppjes Jo hold an indignation meeting at ane»r}y data to protest against what has been termed the unwarrantable interference of the Cambridge committee. Mr Forrest who was absent from the meeting at which the resolution pefgrred to was past, intends re-opening the ques|jqn frfc fthp ne^t meeting.'
