Miss J.W. Home discusses the proposal of the Education Sub-Committee of the Outlook Tower to organise an exhibition on 'occupational' education. Miss Home mentions the ‘Nature-Study’ Movement which encourages children to come into ‘more direct and intimate contact with the world around him’. Although efforts have already been taken into this direction, The Committee feels the need for coordination between various institutions. 3 copies.
