CE-EDUCATION

The junior school, that is scholars of years 11 and 19, kad their own quarters, boys and girls studying together. This was so right through the school; even in the senior classes we found girls and boys working together. Moreover. all the teachers in the junior school (kindergarten up to year four) were ladies, which is quite after the fashion of the west.

The visit was a real pleasure to us, and certainly there is much promise from a school such as this. Of course we had little opportunity for examining the academic work of the children. The large of teachers and the com-short hours they teach, as well as the general equipment of the school, entail an expense greater than most schools can afford, and perhaps greater than the necessities of the case demand, but this is a model school and apparently not short of funds.
