A letter from one of the Head Teachers, which has also
been endorsed by other Head Teachers, states:—
"Since the re-assembly of the school after the Midsummer
Vacation I have made a very exhaustive inspection in each
class, and have been very much struck with the healthy appearance
of the great majority of the boys.
"From enquiries I have learned that more than eighty
per cent. of the lads have availed themselves of the travelling
facilities afforded by the cheap tram fares to Wanstead Flats,
and in most cases many whole days have been spent out in the
open air which would otherwise have been passed in the streets
adjacent to their homes...."
Conclusion.
In addition to many outside organisations every member
of the Council and various Departments of the Council have
the interests of the children at heart, and all contribute to an
end, which acts to the good of the mental, physical and moral
well-being of the children.
