On Tuesday evening the children's Christ-mas-tree was held in the Parish Hall, about 150 juveniles being present, also a number of parents. A very pleasant evening was spent, and the Christmas-tree, laden with toys and nicely lighted, was a pretty sight. The lady teachers in charge of the various stalls were kept busy, and the arrival of Father Christmas was welcomed with acclamation; Items were contributed and games indulged in. The children were given presents from the Christmas-tree, and the occasion was a fitting finale to the year's work. The picnic is to be held in February.
