The night was lino and there was a large attendance. The programme commenced by an ' overture by Mrs Richmond, which was well received. The school children then gave several songs and recitations, which showed they had been carefully trained and were a great credit to their teachers. Misses Saywell, Knox and Savage each received an encore for their singing, which was very good. Miss Jessie Smith gave a recitation which was short and sweet, being entitled “Castor Oil.” Miss Brookes and Mr. Brownhill each played a pianoforte solo, both being much enjoyed by the audience.
