Various improvements have been instigated, and in some cases completed, around the schooI. Tbe Courtroom has been redecorated, and may soon be slightly adapted to serve as apart-time theatre, to satisfy the growing interest in drama in the schooI. Tbe Music School has had carpeting installed, which, I am told, will improve the acoustics, while the pavillon on Upper Field has been given a facelift. Tbe Boarding Houses have not been neglected, however: showers are being built on to Glyndowr, while at Waste Court, parts of the house have been redecorated. Meanwhile, the new Dining Hall is progressing weil: although the roof is not yet on, the builders have started some of the indoar plastering, tTUsting in the good weather. It should be finished and ready for use by Christmas. Many other minor repairs and improvements have been made, too many to mention, far which we must thank the Bursar's vigilant eye. Speakers mM laid on a one-day conference in the school for Sixth-Formers interested in computers.
