Transcription Notes
Exams in the afternoon. 6 entries for El[ementary] Cert[ificate] & 5 for C[ountry[ D[ance] Cert[ificate]. All passed — a very unusual result. Some of them very good indeed e.g Mr Vichmann & Mr Gardner & Mrs Gibbs in El[ementary] & Miss Logan & Miss Smith in C[ountry] D[ancing]. In the evening we were entertained by a so-called Am[erican] Indian woman who gave a first class faked show of pseudo savage dances & songs decked out in Grand opera fashion. A terrible affair, attended of course by the whole neighbourhood!!!Location
