WOBMLEY HOUSE \

GRAMMAR SCHOOL,

EAST MAITLAND.

HAVING SECURED the LEASE of the Commo-

dious Prsmisea formerly occupied by the late Mr«. Muir, of East Maitland, I have much pleasure in announcing to my friends and the public generally that it is my intention TO OPEN THK SAME AS A GRAMMAR SCHOOL at the beginning of the year.

Wormlpy House is situated on one of the best sitea in East Maitland, nnd from its elevated posi-tion commands one of the best views in the district.

Having had many yoars' experience as a teacher in South Australis, and having received a liberal education, I bave no doubt as to my ability to give complete satisfaction to those parents wbo shall hoDur'me by entrusting their sons to mv care.

The Comfort and Advancement of Boarders will receive especial attention at Wormley Houe» ; whilst, owing to the number of dormitories at my disposal, the injurious method of crowding many boys into one apartment at night will be avoided.

The Denominational position oi Boarders will not in any case be interfered with, but their moral training will receive especial attention, and every opportunity taken to inculcate manly and honorable principle«. Unless otherwise instructed by Parents, Boarders will attend on Sunday the Church of England service.

Pupils will be chiafly advanced in those studieB for which they exhibit most aptitude, as I deem it unwise, in the extreme to waste a lad's time in forcing him to devote his attention to noii-eesenlmls, towards which he manifests decided aversion. Bearing this in mind, it shall be my constint study and aim to ascertain the peculiar qualifications nnd tastes ot my pupila, and 1 invite irom parema the fullest con-fidence ; for the -neglect of this matter on the part of teachers and parents has been the cause of ruin to many a -youth, who, if otherwise dealt with and trained, would have been a success instead of a failure in the community.

The curriculum will embrace the usual branches of i-n English education, including Mathematics, Physics, Classics, Elementary Drawing, and Book-keeping. Extras : French, German, Music, Dancing, Drawing, and Painting.

TEEMS PUB QUABTEB, PAYABLE IN ADVANCE.

Resident Boarders:

Under twelve years of age. X13

Over " " . ¿14 Weekly Boarders X2 less than Resident Boardera.

Day Scholars :

Under twelve years of age. X2 Over " " " . X3

Liberal allowance made to sons of Clergymen of all Denominations, and in the csao of brothers attend-ing the School.

TESTIMONIALS.

Education Offices,

Adelaide, Nov. 1st, 1877. My dear Mr. Hack

I hear you are about to devote yourself to the work of teaching, For this I think, you are espe-cially qualified, You have the knowledge, the tact, the geniality, the enthusiasm, and last, but not least, the "vis vivida animi," without which no man can be a good teacher, and with which it is scarcely possible for any man to be a bad one.

From my knowledge of you when a boy under my instruction, and from my notice of your career since, I shall feel great pleasure in testifying to your capa-bilities and worth, if by so doing I can be of any

service to you.

Believe me,

' Ever yours sincerely,

EDWD, DEWHURST,

Senr, Inspr. Schools,

Norwood Grammar School,

South Australia, October 28th, 1877.

Mr. Wilton Hack was for several years associated with this Institution, and always acted in such a way as to secure the highest esteem and confidence of myself and all connected with the conduct of the school, and his severance from us in consequence of his leaving the colony (S. Australia) was a source of

great regret.

In addition to many admirable qualifications as a teacher, Mr. Hack possesses in an eminent degree the faculty of winning the confidence and affection of the boys-an influence which I observed it was his aim to direct, so as to make his pupils manly, truthful, and industrious. I have much pleasure in stating that I consider Mr. Hack well qualified to take the superintendence of boys and youths.

The former long connection of our Mr. Geo. Field as agent for Cobb & Co. at Murrurundi, and sines with Mr. Chas, E. Jaques, may be taken as a guarantee that husiness entrusted to the new firm will have close attention, and that the interests ol constituents will bo carefully watched over.

Our Charges will be Ia»wer Than

Other Agents,

And as we will have no large staff to support, these can bo maintained. The business, therefore, of Station Holders, Storekeepers, Auctioneers, Pub* licans, and others of the Northern and North« Western Districts is asked for,
