Notice of Date of Examination.

Education Department,
Wellington, 28th May, 1908.

NOTICE is hereby given that a Civil Service Junior Examination and a Junior National Scholarship and Free Place Examination will be held in December, 1908, beginning on or about the 9th day of the month; and that a Civil Service Senior Examination and an examination for teachers’ certificates of Class C and Class D will be held in January, 1909, beginning on or about the 5th day of the month.

The Civil Service Junior Examination is a qualifying examination for senior free places in secondary schools and district high schools; also it is the First Examination for pupil-teachers.

With the Junior National Scholarship examination will be taken the Junior Free Place examination (including the examination for junior free places in technical schools), and candidates may qualify for junior free places in either examination.

Entries for Junior National Scholarships and for Junior and Senior Free Places must be made through the principals or head teachers of the schools attended, and will be received by Secretaries of Education Boards not later than the 30th September, 1908.

Entries for other examinations will be received by the Inspector-General of Schools, at Wellington, until the 30th September, 1908, or, with a late fee of £1 in addition to the ordinary fee, until the 15th October, 1908.

All entries must be made on the proper forms, which may be obtained later from the office of any Education Board or of the Education Department.

Candidates for Senior National Scholarships are reminded that, in forwarding to the University authorities their application to be admitted to the examination for a Junior University Scholarship, they must at the same time give notice of their intention to compete for a Senior National Scholarship.

Candidates who have to pass in elementary handwork for the teachers’ certificate are examined at various times and places. Those who desire to be examined in good time in this subject are recommended to apply early.

GEORGE HOGBEN,
Inspector-General of Schools.
