I have purchased out of School Funds a Bolex silent Film Projector from the Monkseaton County Modern School.

The film projector was tested this afternoon and films shown to the children. It was an instant success & providing good educational films can be hired our Visual Aids Units will be complete and classroom teaching should be consolidated. School closes this afternoon at 4 p.m. for the Autumn Holiday (one week & one day). The Average Attendance has improved this week being 93.2%.
