The usual school excursions and athletic activities continue, and badminton has been enjoyed in the school hall, mainly by the Staff. In the Annual Examination 79% of those presented in Class 4 were successful, and of the rest of the school 92% merited promotion.
Taumati School.-The maximum enrolment was 274 and the average attendance 255, a very satisfactory figure in view of the prevalence of malaria in the New Territories, where a considerable proportion of the pupils reside.
The New Method Readers, which are now being generally used in Government Schools, have been introduced into this School. In Class 4, the percentage of passes was 49 and throughout the remaining classes, 92.
An exhibition of Drawings, Maps and Handwork done by the pupils during the Summer holidays, was held in September.
Wantsai School.-The maximum enrolment was 196 and the average attendance 187. The school consisted of three divisions of Class 4, one division each of Classes 5 and 7 and two divisions of Class 8.
Mr. J. Ralston, M.A. acted as Head Master during the absence on leave of Mr. E. J. Edwards. The "New Method" Readers were successfully introduced into the two lowest classes, and will soon be in general use throughout the school.
At the Annual Examination 29 boys passed the Class 1 Examination and proceeded to Queen's College or King's College.
The usual games, sports and excursions were carried on under the supervision of masters.
Gap Road School-Headmaster, Mr. Lo Yuk Lun.
The maximum enrolment was 155, and the average attendance 151. The tone and discipline of this school are very good. It acts as a feeder for Wantsai School and prepares boys for admission to Class 5 in that school.
The maximum enrolment at Taipo School last year rose to 124 (92 in 1929) and the average attendance to 93.
The result of the year's work was good, and the health of the pupils satisfactory.
Un Long School. The maximum enrolment was 63 and the average attendance 46 (almost exactly the same figures as for 1929). The school is now housed in the Pok Ngoi Hospital, pending the completion of the new school premises.
