Buckland
Past and present scholars of Buckland School were entertained to tea by the Rev. and Mrs Phillips of Buckland Rectory, on Friday, January 7th, in the school.
About 60 partook of a splendid tea, followed by songs by the Rev. and Mrs Phillips, and by the children, also recitations by the latter.
Various games were then played, which produced a great deal of fun.
The great feature of the evening was a large Christmas Tree, laden with presents and brilliantly lighted. Each child received two useful presents.
Afterwards those who wished to do so, indulged in dancing, and a very enjoyable evening ended with the singing of the National Anthem, and a call for three cheers by Francis Cole, one of the scholars, to which a hearty response was made.
As the children went out, each was given a bun, an orange and a packet of sweets.
