The Sisters of St. Joseph also sufferers from the epidemic at the same time, necessitating the closing of the school for a day or two.
It is pleasing to note that the recent examination held at the convent school by Mr. Grierson, prove-d highly satisfactory. Of a total of eighty pupils on the rolls, sixty-five were presented, oi which number only one failed. This is very creditable, as more' than half of the children attending the school are native children •Since the establishment of the school in Rotorua, some four years ago/ the number on the roll has more than doubled, which speaks volumes for the good work doneby the Sisters of St. Joseph. *>
