Forbes School Notes Reflect Holiday Interlude And 1927 Changes

Forbes School notes state a six week closure for holidays with no activities and a hopeful return in 1927. Staff shifts include Ming Austin to Belmore North, Miss Buchannan to Ryde, Miss McGrath to Nowra, and Miss Forster to Penshurst. Christmas party for Infants' School guests, prize lists for Empire Day, and tennis results highlight a celebratory close to the year. A memorial to late headmaster Mr. Ferguson, unveiled by staff and pupils, honors his influence with a display and address by officials, as teachers relocate in the aftermath.
