Classrooms.—Two classes are held in one classroom,
without partitions.

still very unsatisfactory, the light coming from behind the
scholars.
Seating.—The desks in three rooms are non-adjustable.
Cloakrooms.—One cloakroom is not provided with
heating apparatus.

Classrooms.—Two classes, separated by movable screens,
are held in the hall of this School.

in rooms 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 8. I would suggest that two
extra gas brackets be fixed in each room.

inadequate.

Classrooms.—Movable screens have been provided for the
four classes held in the hall of this School.
