Before proceeding to read the report. I should like, on behalf of the staff and welcome Mrs. Bird back to pupils, to Belilios: all are happy to see ber here with them again.

School days this year numbered 158, an' average daily attendance of 808 is shown, December-the beginning of the school year-over 200 girls presented themselves for admission, of whom 10s entered the classes. The school had then its full coa plement of pupils; there are on the roll

The health of the school has remained good throughout the year, and we have been entirely free from infectious trou- bles

There have been few changes in or ganisation, the work during the course of the year has proceeded smoothly. & CO., LTD., Mention might be made of the Cookery Classes which continue to be enthusiastic ally followed and enjoyed.

The Drawing and Needlework in the school continue to give satisfaction, and a high standard is maintained. In the small entrance hall you will find an ex- hibition of the work that has been done during the year.

Yearly examinations were held through- out the school in November and pupils promoted on the results. We congratu late those who were successful in obtain- |ing the Government Scholarships for 1925. and the twelve Grant-in-Aid Scholars who came to us from Vernacular Schools. Last year Lady Stubbs presented a silver cap to be held by those who passed Matriculation: the cup this year will be. held in turn by the three candidates who bave just matriculated. In addition to the three Matriculation passes the school has obtained Eve passes in the Junior.

In connection with the Locals it is interesting to note that one of the Matri culation students of last year is now studying medicine at the University, and we hope her example will be followed by the new candidates.

- One of the traditions of the salool, I, as a new comer, am happy to find, is a willingness to help those in need I should like to thank the pupils for their a some. ready response in September to what harried call for help in connection with the Canton floods. In addition to this, they have contributed $1,000 to the Ministering Children's League Fund this cot in Great year: they 'maintain Ormond Street Hospital, London: and- ther in the Nethersele Hospital, Hong- kong; and an orphan in the Kowloon Home.

On the staff there have been several changes during the course of the year. In July, Miss Clarke left to be married, and I took over her work in September. Miss Clarke has been associated with the Belilios Public School for ten years, since I 1919 as Headihistress. All join me,
