King's Park grounds allotted to the Central British School and Kowloon British School Old Boys' Association have also proved a great boon,

Queen's College ground at Causeway Bay which for long was a prey to roving cattle, pigs, and human beings, has now, I am glad to say, been suitably fenced and our thanks are due to the Director of Public Works and Superintendent of Botanical and Forestry Department for their help. The turf will now get a chance.

A fair number of cricket matches were arranged between various schools and on several occasions a Combined Schools team played a University Eleven. I set great store by these games.

7.-REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE.

The only Revenue collected by this Department comes from school fees, which amounted in 1926 to $109,464.75 as against $94,416.00 in 1925.

The Expenditure was $910,063.09, a decrease of $109,842.14 from the previous year. These figures do not include Expenditure on School Buildings or Furniture which are debited to Public Works.

The decrease was mainly due to less expenditure under Building Grants.

May 31st, 1927.
