Aranui H.S. Pupils Receive Prizes

Many young persons he knew could not express themselves without resorting to “New Zealand slang with a New Zealand twang,” said Brigadier J. T. Burrows, Regional Commissioner for Civil Defence, at the annual break-up ceremony of the Aranui High School last evening. Brigadier Burrows urged the children to make every effort to speak well and to cultivate good manners. Manners, he said, were like the multiplication tables. If learnt when young, they came naturally and easily later. Prizes were presented to the following pupils by Mrs J. Mathison (wife of the member of Parliament for Avon) and Miss J. H. Bradley, the retiring senior assistant mistress. Third Forms.—HlTg: Lynda Le Compte, Pauline Stubbs, Heather Todd. IHTb: P. A. Woolley, T. M. Rolton, A. D. King. IIIGd: Ruth Hurrell, R. T.
