background particularly of those boys who are proceeding to a University. Generally speaking, it is arranged that scientists should continue with a language, so essential in these days, and that a boy on the Arts side should know something of scientific thought. The experiment during the past year in Transitus has been reasonably successful, and I am glad to say that the boys concerned are becoming more co-operative, or, in some cases, less unco-operative in our efforts to satisfy these University requirements. We shall continue and extend this system in the coming year when two additional optional subjects are to be introduced, one which we call "Law for the Citizen" and the other "The History and Development of the Commonwealth". There will also be more boys in Transitus beginning to learn Russian, and we shall continue with the good start which has already been made in handicrafts.
We have in the past years had many University successes in Classics, but I am sorry to have to report that the position of Greek in the School seems to be less secure than it was. I do hope parents whose boys are scholastically able to continue their Classics in the VIth form will be assured that, although it is not perhaps an obviously practical vocational training, it still remains one of the most worthwhile of University courses on which many of our leaders today in all walks of life have been nurtured.
The Head Master then reviewed the achievements of the year, all of which have been reported in "The Peterite".
