At the end of last term Miss Jones, now a teacher at the Opawa School, took her own class on a special visit to the museum because she remembered the value of her earlier experience as a pupil. In these photographs, taken outside the museum in 1943 and 1953, Miss Jones is indicated by a white circle. The popularity of the museum’s school service was showl in a recent report of the education officer, Mr H. W. Beaumont, who said that during the last school term 10,501 had attended classes at the museum.
