I am indebted to Miss Cooney, Supervisor of the Occupation
Centre, for the following report: -
"The Centre opened with 71 on roll. There was no school on
the first two days as owing to road conditions it was not possible
to get the coaches out. On January 11th the staff took a party of
55 children from the centre to the circus at the Olympia.
The Board of Control Inspector visited on March 6th.
Miss Bushby resigned in July and as no replacement was made
her class was added to the existing class taken by Miss Murray
who resigned in November following her marriage, to take up
residence in slough. Later in the month replacements were made
Mr. Heath joined the staff to take charge of the senior boys and
Mrs. McCullogh was appointed for the senior girls. The Sale of
Work was held on December 5th and sales amounted to £30. 9. 6.
Owing to the many changes in staff the sale of goods during the
year was below average - £32 in all.
The Christmas Party was held in December.
Ninety-three students visited the centre during the year."
