BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT.
The buildings and grounds have had a double burden to bear. The
Indian School extended its hospitality to the Fraya East School until its Dew quarters are completed. Tas Praya East School has shown its ap- preciation of this by inviting the Indian School to its launch picnics.
The
Botanical Department has erected a big fence round the garden and thus deprived the deer of a favourite feeding place. The School weeds more equipments for teaching purposes.
DISCIPLINE.
The general tone of the school is excellent. Prefects were instituted in April and they have materially assisted in raising the tone of the School and in promoting a spirit of good comradeship among the boys boys of many races and creeds and from all parts of Southern Asin.
