This stoppsd tbe idea of making them mixed schoolp, and as a latt reiott they had EU^gßsted a change in the teaching stiff in the direction of bringing the stall on the basia cf the stuff of mixjd schools, So as not to be haul on Misa Blythp, they considered ' that it might be arrmged so tbat stae could remain as assistant under a male headmaster.

Tne Wanganni Schools— Tbe Executive raported as follows :— '• We bsg to repot that, as deeirad by ths Board, we visited the Boys' and Giila' School, Wanjanoi, on February Cth, 1896^ We fouDd tbe accommodation in the Boys' School adequate for the attendance. Tbe only * room that is at all full is that in which Standard IV ib taught, and tbtit is not overcrowded. In the Girls' School tbe total fl:or space is sufficient for its highest attendance uj> to d»te, but there is a litt'c difficulty in or anqing the standards t> suit, the roims. A portion o£ Standoid IV is now taught in tha porch, but if Standard IV. and Stitidard 11. were to i bangs rooms the necessity for using the porch wonli be obviated. Should the attendance in this school con» " tinua to increase as it has done lately, tin Board will' dtion havo to face the erection of an additional room. Many of the desks in both schools are old fashioned and in convenienf', and we think they should ba gridually replaced nith dual de^k^. Mr Bridge dissents trom tbis suggestion, and recommends that an estimate bo obtained of the cost ( f altering into dual desks thosojthat cc it four and upwards." -The report was adopted without dia^aes'ion.
