Miss Jean Ferguson has received advice that at the examination conducted at Hamilton this week by Mr Lloyd Powell on behalf of the Associated Board of the Royal Academy of Music, the following pupils presented by her duly passed: Grade 4, Hettie Hemming; grade 1, Errol Bryant, Clifford Peake, and Freeman Rain; and preliminary grade, Adele Telfer. All the pupils presented by Miss Ferguson passed, a 100 per cent record, on which she is to be congratulated. This morning, Miss Ferguson received advice of the following further successes of her pupils:— Grammar of Music—Grade I.— Ethne Wyllie, Jeanette Wyllie, Ngaire Johnson, Valerie Wright. Ethne Wyllie secured 100 per cent marks.

MISS NORTH’S SUCCESSES. COMPETITION RESULTS. At the Associated Board music examinations conducted in Hamilton this week by Mr Lloyd Powell both pupils presented by Miss Phyllis North were successful. They were Diana Wall and Mary Wynyard who secured passes in Grade VI. Diana Wall also scored successes at the recent Wellington Competitions, where she gained second place in the sight-reading test and, in the Chas. Begg Piano Scholarship, came third in a class of twenty-two —a record which reflects to the credit of Miss North’s ability as a tutor.
