but nothing was done. And even when it was
converted the buildings were the same as those in 1895, which
remained until 1965, when they were finally demolished and new
ones put in the air-raid shelter which had been built in the
Second World War). Also at this meeting Miss Bowler had been
asked to hand in her resignation, and at the same time the first
mention of the ‘hut’ appears. (See Fig.
9). 1934 sees an
experiment with the Beacon Reading System. Ash school did a
production of Midsummer Night’s Dream in the ‘hut’ on
October 5th, in the following year the holidays are approved by
the K.E.C., as well as the Managers, for the first time.17
But the holidays remained the same for |

some time.
From time to time after Miss Bowler left, teachers
came and went,18 none of them staying for more than
two years, some are qualified, some are supply, but the school
becomes very disrupted. For almost the whole of 1936 the Log
Book is taken up with reports on excessive roughness among the
infants with several serious accidents, and a start of
unfavourable habits among themselves, especially the boys. 1936
is also the year that school milk is recorded as being provided.18
