Chinese.-Reading.-Good in the lower, very good in the upper standards. (There
are 5 standards in all).
Composition.-Poor. It was quite obvious that in many cases those who could not write copied from their more fortunate neighbours. The pupils in IA, III and IV were the chief offenders.
Geography.--Good.
Arithmetic.—Mental.-Fair. It might be better.
Written.-Fair. Standard IV should be able to do division at least.
Needlework.-Good.
Grant.-I recommend a grant at the rate $5. The grant would have been increased but for the extensive collaboration in composition which was evidently not checked in any way by the teacher.
