team also took part in several miniature football tournaments. The annual intra-departmental Miniature Football Competition for the 'U-lam' Cup was again won by the Running Shed team.
61. Education. The Railway Club School continued to function successfully with 426 pupils in 11 classes ranging from Primary 1 to Form III, with two parallel Primary 6 and Form I classes. Secondary Form III was added in September 1970. There were fifteen members on the teaching staff including the Headmaster, whose enthusiasm contributed in no small measure to the success of the school. The pupils' attendance was good, with an average of 98.6%. Of the 21 candidates who took part in the Secondary School Entrance Examinations, 17 obtained passes in all subjects. 9 pupils did par- ticularly well and gained Government allocated free places in secon- dary schools.
62. Canteen Facilities. The Club's canteen at Hung Hom and the Railway Workshops' canteen at Ho Tung Lau, Sha Tin, provided inexpensive meals for a large number of Railway staff.
