We wish to express our gratitude for guidance given in researching the book by the Planning Section of the Department of Education.  We would also like to thank all those people, too numerous to mention individually, who have so willingly provided information, photographs, assistance and support in compiling the book. While limitations of space prevented all the photographs from being included, they have all been copied and will form the basis of a collection to be housed in the original classroom.  Their historical value as a resource material will grow, year by year.
