The amount which has been received, accruing under the head of " Secondary Purposes," has been added to that specified in the last year's report (£150) as having been set apart for the establishment of a superior school for girls, and, together with that, now amounts to £384, which sum is lodged in the Union Bank of Australia on fixed deposit.
