Hodgins, who oper­ ates Mrs. Dobie’s Nursery School, she stated that she would not find it possible to reopen the school in September as she is unable to take the necessary course in Toronto, in June. This course, offered by the Day Nurseries Branch of the Division of Child Welfare, is from June 16 to July 11, costs $25.00 and must be taken by anyone operating a nursery school. If there is anyone interested in taking over the operation of the Nursery School in September they should contact either Mrs. Hodgins or Mrs. Dobie at once as it is necessary for an appli­ cant foi* the course to be help­ ing in a school or a day nursery at the time of application. It would seem a shame that Lucan be without a nursery school as the short periods of such a school prove of much benefit to the pre-school child when he starts to public school. Registrations for the spring term, particularly for children starting public school in Septem­ ber, should be made before Easter.
