Lytton Street School Fancy Dress Dance

SUCCESSFUL GATHERING The children of Lytton Street School, supported in goodl? r numbers by those from the Manchester Street and Convent Schools, spent a bright two hours on the occasion of the school’s annual fancy dress dance, held in the Drill Hall last evening. The fact that the fixture had been postponed from the previous Friday did not prevent the children from entering into the spirit of the occasion, and as in past assemblies they had a thrilling time. The scene was as g:iy as multi-coloured costumes could make it, and tho large flags which adorned the walls added materially to the bright effect. The children went, through their folk dancing and marches splendidly, delighting the onlookers with their prettily executed movements.

The floor was in charge of Mr. A. Kingston and the school headmaster, Mr. W. G. Wilson, while Miss Crabb superintended the dances. Music was supplied by gramophone records made available by the generosity of Mr. McEwcn.

During the evening the opportunity was taken by Mr. J. Penney, chairman of the Lytton Street School Committee, to make a presentation to Mr. T. K. Hay, late secretary of tho committee, on behalf of the committee and the Parents’ Association. Mr. Penney paid a high tribute to the help and assistance given the school by Mr. Hay during tho years ho had been associated with the committee, stating that it was largely due to his work that the surroundings of the school had been so greatly improved.
