20 Cadets Promotions: C.S.M. — Sgt. }. I). Stubbs. Sgts. — Cpls. C. Collis and D. P. Lines. Cpls. - L Cpls. G. Palcy and T. Michielson. L Cpls. - Cdts. R. Cook, H. Skiffington, H. Mc- Harg, T. Oatham. Strength: 46. In the past year the Company has decreased in numbers and the majority of the strength lies in newly acquired personnel so that the parades have taken on the nature of a recruiting centre and there has been much drill work. It has been found expedient to split the Company into two Platoons so that training could be so divided also, and this course ha? proved worth while as the most senior cadets have been able to do some field work . The band has been restarted and though there is a lack of instruments, particularly bugles, there has been no lack of enthu- siasm. Band instructors from Prospect Garrison have been training band recruits and with some success. The Annual Camp was held last year at St. David ' s Battery, and the weather was good for most of the week, though on the last day, when mopping-up operations were taking place, there was heavy rain and informal order of dress was — bathing-trunks! There were fourteen boys who attended camp which rather spoiled their fun as there are so many things to be done and it is hoped that more will attend camp this year. The cadets were inspected by His Excellency the Governor and O.C. British Troops in Bermuda both complimenting the turn-out of the cadets in view of the many fatigues which had to be done. On the Wednesday of camp the cadets had the opportunity of .303 rifle shooting at Warwick Range, on a glorious day, and after- wards some of them refreshed themselves by bathing. On one Sunday during the Easter Term six cadets went to Warwick Range and had rifle • shooting, some being coached by members of a local rifle club. It is a pity that this had to be dis- continued owing to the return of the Royal Navy who have pref- erence over other organisations in using the range, but it is hoped that it will be possible to resume this activity as soon as possible, flowcvcr as the Annual Camp is to be held at Warwick Camp this )( ar the re will be plenty of shooting to be had if more cadets attend lliis year than last.

Annual Art Exhibition A small but successful exhibition was held this year in the School Library on Thursday, March 24th, 1949. Notable amongst the exhibits were the charcoal drawings of T. W. P. Vesey, that of a head from the antique winning the Senior prize, although the still-lifes he submitted were also of a very high standard. The junior section prize was won by C. Zuill for his lively coloured drawing of a horse and its jockey, and F. R. J. Petty won the Special Prize for his well devised repeated pattern. The show was judged by Mr. H. Watlington, who smilingly confessed that he had great difficulty in making the final choice, particularly amongst the drawings shortlisted in the junior section. The Manual Training section of exhibition was adjucated by Mr. F. Snape and from the man well-made and beautifully finished exhibits he chose the work of M. M. Minugh and C. A. P. Dickens. The entries included many useful and decorative objects including tie-racks, door-stops, garden-trowels, cold chisels, paper-knives and a well-turned cedar table-lamp standard. It is hoped that there will be another Art Exhibition of more extensive dimensions in the Winter Term which will be commented upon in the next issue of the school Magazine. In the meantime it is hoped that interest in this subject will continue both in and out of school. The Stamp Club The Stamp Club has met regularly every week, and there has been quite a good attendance usually. It is being run on different lines from what it was. The main object is to encourage boys to increase their collec- tion by swopping as far as possible in accordance with catalogue prices. There is great keenness especially among the younger boys, and the numbers have now reached twenty seven.
