Changing Curriculum

In 1890 the school had 700 boys on the roll. Enlargements and subdivisions of the classrooms had to be made. Standard Six had 60 boys in a classroom.

New subjects were introduced – practical geometry, art, poetry, oral composition and physical training. Evening classes continued with a roll of over a hundred.
