Christchurch, 14th June, 1875.
THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Sir,
We have the honour to report that, during the past fortnight, we have examined the candidates for Provincial Government Scholarships. Of 105 candidates who entered their names, 97 were present, divided among the four classes as follows:—In Class A, 15 boys and 10 girls; in Class B, 23 boys and 11 girls; in Class C, 21 boys and 13 girls; in Class D (for boys only), 4. The results of the examination are shown in the tables of marks appended.
In Class A, Caroline Woodley and Julian Hart, between whom there is a very slight distinction, take the first places, with an unusually high number of marks. Leonard Chapman stands well for the second place, and at a little distance follow Charles Ross, Lucy Fawcett, and Cecilia Ross, who are nearly equal.
In Class B, Partridge and Round are first, and a little way below them come H. B. M. Watson and Catherine Alexander, between whom the distinction is very fine indeed. Boswell and Rowe also stand well in this class.
In Class C, Mary Gilberthorpe is easily first, with a larger proportion of marks than we remember to have been ever gained before, especially in arithmetic, where she makes full marks. H. Robinson’s marks are also very good; in arithmetic he makes 98. The third place falls to R. Green. Edith Dunnage, G. Mason, and G. Whitelaw, who come next in order, are nearly equal.
In Class D, the first place is taken by Bridge, who made full marks in ancient and sacred history, while his grammar paper was exceedingly good.
