The numbers in detail are : Auckland University College, 101 (5 graduates, 18 matriculated students); Canterbury College, 249 (88 matriculated); Otago University, 140 (90 matriculated). (See Reports, E.-8, 7, 6.) The high schools named in the following table (Z) have all furnished statistical returns ; and all except Thames have sent in statements of accounts. A separate paper (E.-9) will contain all the most important information as to the state and work of the schools. Table Z gives the principal statistics. For Nelson Girls' College a number has been assumed for the average attendance, to supply an omission in the returns. On the whole the attendance at secondary schools has fallen off during the year.
