WORSER BAY
The "breaking-up" ceremony at Worser Bay was of a particularly pleasing character. The girls of the upper classes had organised during the year as a social committee. Money raised at functions arranged by them was devoted to providing prizes for swimming and a Christmas tree for the little ones.
Members of the School Committee took the opportunity to express pleasure at tho success of Sir. J. S. Webb's work in and out of school during f;he past year, and the elder girls showed their appreciation by presenting him with a pocketbook. In Standard VI. there were no failures. Sixteen pupils gained proficiency and three endorsed competency certificates.
The following received proficiency certificates.—Constance Anderson, Leslie Charman, David Clark, Alfred Clarke, Laurrie Davies, Percy Fraser, Edith Handley, Winifred Horsfall, Jean Hun* ter, Leonard Parsons, Thomas Phillips, Florence Robinson, Constance Rouse, John Seacombe, Gwen Norton-Taylor, Alfred Wilson. Endorsed competency.— Denys Aitken, George Barclay, Nimie Corbett. David Clark was the dux of the school.
The gathering closed with three cheers for the staff and the singing of the National Anthem.
