SCHOOL COMMITTEES
affairs of association The report of the executive of the Auckland Primary School Committees' Association, to bo presented at thoannual meeting on June 21, states 11 new committees were affiliated during the year. There were now 38 city and suburban committees and 94 country committees in tho association. The association had strenuously opposed the extension of the contract for school text hooks with the present publishers instead of calling for tenders, and had done all in its power to protest against the exclusion of five-year-old children. It had suggested to tho Education Board that, where convenient, permission should bo granted to school committees to establish kindergarten classes, approved teachers to be employed without any obligation to tho board with regard to salary. The board had replied that it would give favourable consideration to applications from committees, provided accommodation was available. Tho balance-sheet shows a credit of over £l3.
