SPLENDID NEW SCHOOL OPENED IN GARDEN WARD
[Welland Telegraph, 21 September 1909]
The improved school building in the Garden Ward is now completed, and The Telegraph is very glad to congratulate the School Board on the excellent manner in which they have met the needs of the Garden Ward with a school building that seems really everything that could be desired.
A representative of this paper paid a visit to the school yesterday and found Miss Ball and Miss Morin busily engaged with large classes. The rooms are so bright and attractive and so well designed that School going in the Garden Ward ought to be very healthful and pleasant.
Miss Ball is conducting a graded school in what was the room formerly occupied by Miss Forster. On the roll here are sixty names with an attendance of 45 to 48. Miss Morin teaches junior second half a day and senior the other half. Most of these academicians come from over the waters of the canal, and they have quite a long march of it.
Miss Morin is occupying the south room of the new wing and tomorrow Miss O’Halloran opens the corresponding room on the north.
Splendidly lighted and ventilated class rooms are not only the only asset of the new school. The outside appearance is attractive; there is ample basement accommodations, commodious hat and clock rooms, and convenient lobbies.
The ratepayers will probably be well satisfied with the expenditure in the North Ward.
