New Courses Planned
The board of governors of the Christchurch Technical Institute agreed that prefabricated buildings should be erected to cope with block courses for coach building apprentices, at the request of the Education Department, at the monthly meeting of the board this week.
The Education Department had asked whether the courses could be catered for in 1968, said the principal (Mr D. W. Lyall). Although there svould be only three block attendances of three weeks each, the institute could not provide accommodation for the practical work as the panel-beating workshops were already insufficient to meet the present demand. The department would provide and equip a prefabricated hut for the practical work, said Mr Lyall. Two appointments to the staff of the institute were confirmed—Mr K. P. Fitzgerald as an electrical tutor, and Mr J. D. A. Hercus, as head of the department of mathematics, science and general.
