Day Nurseries.
Established and controlled privately.
Held at 27 & 29, Pond Street and 36, Hemstal Road.
The Committee of the Creche at Pond Street presented a Memorial
to the Council on 30th June, 1927, referring to the defective state of
these premises (in part of which are held the Borough Council's Prematernity
and Dental Clinics) and to a scheme for the reconstruction of
those premises—and asked for the Council's financial assistance towards
the annual maintenance of the Creche and towards the rebuilding fund.
The Maternity and Child Welfare Committee, to whom the Memorial was
referred, gave careful consideration to the matter and being of the
opinion that the Creche was doing most necessary work which should
receive the support of the Council, recommended that, subject to the
sanction of the Ministry of Health, a grant of £100 be made to the
Creche for the financial year 1928-29, on the condition that if and when
such grant is made, a representative of the Committee should be nominated
to serve on the Management Committee of the Creche. To this
recommendation the Council agreed on 21st July. The premises were
closed in December in view of the rebuilding; the Council's Dental
Clinic held its last session there on December 21st and the Pre-inaternity
Clinic closed on the following day. Subsequently, temporary premises
were secured for these Clinics at No. 33, South End Road, while the
Creche removed pending the rebuilding to No. 1, Stanley Gardens.
