Makakahi Public School. This school consists of one good, well-lighted room, 26 feet by 21 feet. It was opened on the 2nd of June, 1891, by Miss A. Falla, with an average attendance of seven. The average has now reached forty-seven, with a roll strength of fifty-eight. The standards up to the sixth are taught. Since May, 1894, the school has been in charge of Mr. Walter Britland, who is assisted by Miss Annie Gregg, daughter of Mr. Richard Gregg, sheepfarmer, of Glengregg, Makakahi. The inspectors have been pleased to report well of the school, and Mr. Britland and his assistant evidently take great interest in their work.
