OPEN-AIR EDUCATION.
In previous reports reference has been made to the steps that
are taken to encourage open-air education for the school children
in the Borough. No new steps with reference thereto, worthy of
record, have been taken during the year.
CO-OPERATION OF PARENTS, TEACHERS, SCHOOL
ATTENDANCE OFFICERS AND VOLUNTARY BODIES.
The co-operation of parents, teachers, school attendance
officers and certain voluntary bodies in regard to school medical
inspection and especially medical treatment has been alluded to on
previous occasions. One cannot too often refer to or express
appreciation of the valuable assistance rendered whole-heartedly
by the teachers. Without that assistance the whole scheme of
inspection and treatment would not work so successfully as it
does.
Among the voluntary bodies which have given much continued
help are the Central Aid Society, the National Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Children, and the School Attendance
Aid Committee.
PHYSICAL TRAINING.
In an earlier report an account was given of the provision
made for physical exercises and organised games at the schools
and except for new developments associated with new schools the
scheme remains the same.
