Industries, Central and D istrict Advisory Committees are in process of formation. It is hoped that these committees will not only arouse the interest of the Basuto, hu t will also give useful advice upon the selection of the students to be trained, the distribution of trained students and the setting up of home units. I t is hoped to institute the teaching of basket work at each centre and local advice on the availability of grass for such work will be most useful.G am es

118. Football remained the most popular sport at the various schools and institutions during the year. T he Lerotholi Technical School, Roma College, M orija and Basutoland High School all competed for the S tuart Cups, senior and junior, both of which were won by Roma College. Team s from the same institutions also com peted for the Basutoland Sports Association Cup open to all the teams in Basutoland ; this was won by the Roma University College team.

119. Tennis is played at several schools, and the High School sent a mixed team of Europeans and Africans to compete against M odderpoort Institution. Netball is played at most G irls’ schools and a cup, the games for which were organised by the Basutoland Sports Association, was won by Tsikoane Interm ediate School.

120. T he Principal of St. Catherine’s School for girls reports th a t several visits were made by her students to the Lerotholi T ech­nical School for bioscope shows. T he Technical students invited the girls to a concert and tea and to see the workshops. Students com pleting their course at the Lerotholi Technical School were entertained at St. Catherine’s before the school closed at the end of the term .Adult Education

121. T he need for adult education in Basutoland is not so pressing as in some African territories as a large proportion of Basuto adult population is literate. T here is however a definite need for special educational m ethods for adolescents and adult herdboys, and m easures are being considered to provide these. A most interesting lecture on this subject was given at a Mission conference at M orija by M rs. Q uintin W hyte, wife of the Acting Director of the South African Race Relations Institute. T he co­operation of the Institu te has been prom ised in carrying out adult educational experiments.

N ight Schools have been established at several adm inistrative centres.M obile Cinem a Van

122. T he year witnessed the arrival in Basutoland of a Mobile Cinema Van presented to the territory by the M inistry of Inform a­tion, London. Present lack of staff made the fullest use of this van impossible during the year, bu t it is hoped to develop its use in future as an integral part of the Public Relations Service, which it is hoped to set up under an Education Officer seconded to this work as soon as his relief can be appointed from England. Preliminary experim ental work with the van showed that its performances are greatly appreciated by African audiences, though it appears likely that for instructional purposes it will be necessary to make local films or film strips. T he M osuto is interested enough, from the point of view of entertainm ent, in seeing instructional films made elsewhere, as in East Africa, bu t he is apt to consider that conditions depicted in these films are so different from those in Basutoland as to have very little instructional value for this territory.Pathfinder Scouts

123. Considerable headway has been made during the year w ith the resuscitation of Scouting in Basutoland. T he Resident Commissioner has accepted the Presidency and the Param ount Chief the Vice-Presidency of the movement, and Territorial and D istrict Pathfinder Commissioners have been appointed, who, together with representatives of the Param ount Chief and of the M issions, form the Territorial Council. At a m eeting held early in the year the Council decided to concentrate for the present on laying a sound foundation for the movement by providing adequate training for officers. Four training camps have since been held in different districts, two of them with the valuable assistance of an experienced African Organizer from the Union, and as a result about 60 Scouters have received sufficient prelim inary training to enable them to start and run their own troops. Five of the more experienced Scouters also attended a more advanced training camp in Natal, and the Council intends to continue to take advantage of such facilities outside Basutoland until the territory is in a position to provide its own advanced training.

124. At the beginning of the year there were only two or three active troops in the territory, bu t the census taken in Septem ber showed 31 registered troops with a total enrolm ent of 39 Scouters and 598 Pathfinders, and by the end of the year at least 16 more

troops were in operation. T his expansion, which is due mainly to the energy and enthusiasm of a few European and African Scouters, is in itself most gratifying, but it has intensified the problem of adequate supervision and maintenance of efficiency. T his should however be gradually solved as more African Scouters receive advanced training.

125. T he results recorded would not have been possible w ithout a certain am ount of financial assistance, especially to cover training expenses, and this has been provided by a grant from the G overn­m ent and another from the Native Recruiting Corporation. T raders and others in the various districts have also helped with contribu­tions to local funds, and this evidence of outside support is most encouraging to the movement.Girl G uides

126. D uring the year 15 new Guide Companies and 11 Sunbeam Circles were formed in the Territory, and warrants were issued to 30 new officers. T he total enrolm ent (Guides and Sunbeams) is now 1,421. M ost of the companies were visited during the year by the Divisional Commissioners, and thanks are due to the T erri­torial Commissioner, M rs. Forsyth Thom pson, for her keen interest in the movement.

127. Six Guides were chosen to represent Basutoland at the Royal Rally in Cape Tow n in April, and the visit proved of great benefit to them and a stimulus to G uiding in the Territory. On the occasion of the Royal Visit to Basutoland 400 Guides, represent­ing every district, attended a rally in M aseru and were inspected by H .R .H . Princess Elizabeth. It is interesting to note that on the same occasion the girls of St. Catherine’s Company assisted the Police contingent by sewing on medal ribbons and ironing hats, for which they received the thanks of the Commissioner of Police.A cknowledgem ents

128. It is a pleasure once again to acknowledge the assistance rendered to the D epartm ent by M issionaries and members of the other Governm ent Departm ents. Officers, both European and African, of the D epartm ent itself have, as usual, rendered unstinting service.

D . S. M il l e r , Director o f Education

M aseru,28th February, 1948.

EUROPEAN EDUCATION(1 his is dealt with in an appendix as the num ber of European ( hildren is so small in co nparison with that of African children).

1. T he recommendations of the Centra! Advisory C on-nittee on European Education at its meeting in 19+6 were approved by the Secretary of State and implemented during the year. Under the new system Elementary Education at European schools in Basuto­land is now free and equipm ent grants are provided by G overn­m ent for the various European school committees to p riv iie the necessary funds with which they may now purchase school equip­m ent which was previously paid for out of school fees.

2. It remains doubtful whether the present system of m aintaining European schools at all camps where there are 5 or more European children of school-age i-; either economical or suitable in other ways. Consideration has been paid during the year to the possibility of introducing the correspondence school system so successfully followed in Southern Rhodesia. Another alternative is the centra­lisation of European schools at perhaps 3 camps in the territory, hostel accommodation to be provided at each such school. Either or bo th of these suggestions appeal naturally to parents who are unlucky enough to live in an area where there is at present no school owing to the impossibility of fulfilling the present conditions. Equally naturally they do not appeal to parents who have the luck to live at a centre where there is at present a school and who there­fore do not want to lose that privilege.

3. Six European schools were m aintained during the year with an average total enrolment of 88 pupils. It has been possible to improve staff salaries slightly to bring them into line with those of teache,-s of similar qualifications teaching in African schools. T he strain of teaching at the same time a num ber of children of varying standards is considerable, and credit is due to the teaching staff for their hard work and perseverance in tackling these d i­fficulties. M ention m ust also be made of the cooperation of the parents of the children, particularly at Maseru, in supervising out of school activities such as dancing, tennis, swimming and riding which could not be done bv the school staff,

4. T he usual examination for the Fraser Scholarship, the Queen Victoria Diam ond Jubilee Scholarship and the M aluti Scholarship was held at the end of the year. T he papers were difficult but the standard of work was surprisingly high and showed considerable im provem ent over the results of last year.

BASUTOLAND HIGH SCHOOL Entrants

1. T he year under review opened with 145 pupils of whom 95 were boys. T he num ber of entrants in Form A was fewer because of the high percentage of failures in Standard VI.

Staff Changes2. We were glad to welcome M r. J. M . M ohapeloa back to the

Staff in January. Misses P. W . Aronson and E. N . Zim replaced Misses Wells and Tlale. In July we were fortunate to secure the services of M r. R. C. Ellis, an able scientist of considerable expe­rience. We congratulate M r. Iv. E. N tsane on being given a bursary to further his studies in England.

3. Both M r. E. T . Grieveson and M r. B. M . Sello left us at the end of the year, we wish them well M r. Grieveson in particular will be sadly missed both in and out of class.Classes

4. Committees of Staff teaching the same subject have been form ed and have drawn up schemes indicating (a) the am ount of work to be covered by each Form , (b) the general m ethods to be adopted in teaching the subject, and (c) the m ost suitable books to be used. W here possible, the Senior M aster in each subject is in charge of that subject throughout the school. A num ber of Form M asters have started weekly current news letters, which m em bers of the class produce in tu rn ; these are edited by the M aster and posted up in the Classroom. As an aid to teaching we now have all available pictures catalogued, m ounted and arranged under subject headings. Such a library of pictures is of infinite value, especially in Basutoland. Talks on W orld Affairs are given every Friday morning.Library

5. If the num ber of books taken out and the use of the L ibrary for reference purposes is indicative of the benefit derived, we can be satisfied that the L ibrary is serving an ever-increasing need. T he necessity for more room is as acute as ever.

The Literary and Debating Society6. U nder our enthusiastic President, the Society has had a

successful year, its activities ranging from Inter-Institu tional Debates and Lectures to Concerts, Films and indoor games.Religious Life

7. T he day starts with ten m inutes quiet time, then m orning prayers with a short reading or address, and ends with prayers after preparation. Voluntary services are held every second Sunday evening, w hilst the intervening Sunday is devoted to the Student Christian Association’s activities. All students attend their own churches in M aseru each Sunday morning. Preparation classes for pupils desiring to become full members of their own church have been held.The Boarding H ouses

8. Since our last report a committee of seniors in each House has been appointed and under the Prefects have been given certain responsibilities. T his is a step towards the teaching of self-govern­m ent and when the idea becomes more familiar these bodies will be more effective.Gardens

9. D espite the lack of water and the poverty of soil we have had a more successful year. Apart from their work in the garden, the boys have dug and filled almost one hundred holes in which trees have te en planted. In addition they have dug lengthy trenches for the planting of hedges and prepared gardens in front of the G irls’ Hostel.Buildings

10. It is with pleasure that we report that all African Staff houses were completed by ] uly of this year.Sports

11. Each boy has had two games of one sort or another each week in addition to his gardening and such other activities as Pathfinding. W e missed some of our last year’s stalwarts in the Foot­ball season and so failed to get into the finals of the Basutoland Sports Association, but our team played well, played to the whistle and showed no inclination to lodge protests when defeated.

12. O ur cricket has not hcen so successful th is season, but there are a num ber who are making progress and are keen.

13. We shared with Roma the honours of w inning the Inter- Institutional Athletic trophy, and several of our team were selected to represent Basutoland against the Institutions of the Free State and contributed in no small measure to the retention of the cup by Basutoland. Our tennis team were runners up in the Tennis com petition whilst the girls lost one game of netball during the season and that left us as runners up in the Basutoland Sports Association competition.Social Service

14. G roups of boys and girls still carry on this good work, visiting each Sunday the Prison, the Hospital, Botsabelo and various villages where services and Sunday schools are held.Staff Guild

15. We were fortunate in having talks and lectures by M rs. W hitworth, Ladv Arden Clarke, T he D irector of Education and Dr. Clarke.Visitors

16. Among our distinguished visitors this year were Miss Gwilliam of the Colonial Office, His H onour the Resident Comm is­sioner, the Director of Education, Dr. M atthew of Oxford and Chief Letsie all of whom spoke to the school.Pathfinders

17. An enthusiastic troop of some 24 boys devote Friday after­noons to this valuable training.Exam inations

18. Thirty-five candidates were entered for the Junior C erti­ficate and sixteen for the Senior, of whom 31 were successful in the Junior Certificate examination, one with a first class pass, and 9 in the Senior Certificate examination, one first class and one other with M atriculation exemption.

3. T here were no epidemics and the average attendance figure was 97 per cent.Staff Changes

4. M r. A. Taylor, F irst Grade Clerk, undertook the instruction of Clerical trainees in Shorthand and Typing bu t left in the middle of the year to take up another appointm ent in Rhodesia. T he vacancy was filled by the transfer of M r. A. D. Sm ith from the Agricultural D epartm ent. M r. H. G. Stark was appointed to the staff on 1st M arch, as Instructor in M otor M echanics. M r. W. Forsyth, C arpentry-Instructor, was transferred to the Public Works D epartm ent in October and M r. R. C. Rae, M ason-Instructor, resigned at the end of the year to go to a new post in East London. As an experiment, these two departm ents have been placed under

the charge of African Assistant Instructors S. J. Selatile and A. L. M otopi, with the Principal exercising general supervision. A report on the working of this experim ent is to be made later. M r. E. S. M ohapeloa returned to the Agricultural Departm ent and M r. E. T . Tau, who had been seconded to the Basutoland High School, returned to his post of Assistant Instructor in Farming.Work

5. During the first quarter, the School was extremely busy with preparations for the Royal Visit, having been entrusted with the design and erection of the Royal Pavilion, the new Customs Barrier, and all street and building decorations. The successful com pletion of this task was recognised by the award of six medals to the European staff and a further medal to M r. A. I,. Motopi.

6. 1 he M aseru W ar Memorial, designed and erected by the School, was unveiled by His Honour the Resident Comm issioner at the end of September.

7. Receipts for work done are estimated at £7,600 and present indications are that this figure will be attained at the close of the financial year on M arch 31st, 1948.Expansion Programme

8. Due to a change in the priorities, work on the hostel has been suspended while the first European staff house and the M otor M echanics workshop are pushed on towards completion.Visitors
