I am indebted to Miss Cooney, Supervisor of the Occupation
Centre, for the following report:-
In January the Centre re-opened with 75 patients on roll.
Slight alterations were made in staffing. - Mrs. Neale was appointed
to undertake the Senior Female Class, and Mrs. McCullough
moved downstairs to take charge of the Junior Class. This
arrangement has been a great improvement to these two classes.
On January 10th we were able to take 60 of the patients to the
Circus at Olympia. Tickets were obtained for this through the
Parents Association for Backward Children. At the beginning of
December, the Annual Sale of Work was held, and in spite of a
very foggy afternoon, the parents came along in good force. The
sales for this day amounted to £35.0.2. The amount taken in
sales for the year amounted to £53.8.8. This was a record year.
In December the Annual Christmas Party was held on December 17th
with film shows, games, tea and ice cream.
