Woodlands School A successful Picnic. The annual prize-giving and picnic of the school took place on Friday last, and was in every way a marked success. Nearly all the parents and friends of the school throughout the district were present and the weather was delightful. The ladies provided ample and appetising refreshments, which seemed to be 'on' all day. During the day many racing and other events usual at a children's sports gathering were carried out and were all keenly contested. In the afternoon Mr Escott M.P. very kindly attended and he distributed the prizes in the school, speaking nicely to each one as he handed the prize .. Standard II – Mavis Litchfield,1st

Pupils' Concert Despite the inclement weather, a large audience attended at the Alexandra Hall on Friday night, when a concert was given by Miss Cosgrove's pupils. The stage had been arranged as a drawing-room and was artistically decorated with a liberal collection of flowers of the season. The entertainment throughout was of a thoroughly enjoyable nature and the various items elicited round after round of applause and in quite a number of instances encores were demanded and generously responded to. The musical, technique, touch and interpretation were invariably good for such young performers and the excellence of their efforts, sometimes marred naturally by a little pardonable nervousness, proved a testimony to the careful and skilful tuition they had received from Miss Cosgrove, who is to be congratulated on the advancement the pupils are making. The audience were in a critical mood, but the frequent applause testified to their appreciation of the children's efforts and to the satisfaction which they, as parents, regarded the progress of their wards under such a capable and painstaking instructress. The pupils taking part were: .. & Mavis Litchfield. At an appropriate period Mr I. Moriarty addressed those present, saying how pleased they were with the musical feast accorded them and expressing gratification at the progress the children were making under the able direction of Miss Cosgrove, whom they desired to compliment on her excellent work and to sincerely thank her for the interest she had taken in the children's musical education. On behalf of the pupils he had great pleasure in presenting Miss Cosgrove with a set of brushes and combs and extended to her their best wishes for 'A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.' The singing of the National Anthem concluded a very successful entertainment
