Miss Nevill intends to qualify for the Montessori Diploma, a two-year course, after which she will return to New Zealand to take up kindergarten work. The College is devoted to the training of girls for kindergarten and more advanced work, under the method devised by Madame Montessori, the famous Italian teacher, who personally superintends the training of each student before awarding a diploma. It will be remembered that Canon and Mrs Nevill and their family came tc Dunedin from England many years ago, so that there are many friends and relations waiting to welcome the young New Zealand relative.
