With reference to standard 7 and the infant classes the inspector reports : Standard 7: There are three pupils in this class. They all showed an intelligent and accurate acquaintance with the satisfactory amount of work professed by them in euclid ana algebra. One of them did besides a very fair amount of work in Latin very creditably. Infant classes : Beading in these classes is deficient in expression, but the rest of the work is most creditably done. The order, discipline, and manners of the pupils are excellent.
