TABLE X.—Income and Expenditure of Industrial Schools and Orphanages.

KOHIMARAMA NAVAL TRAINING SCHOOL. The Kohimarama Naval Training School was established in December, 1874, under the provisions of "The Naval Training Schools Act, 1874." The Government leased the premises formerly occupied by the late Bishop Sehvyn's Melanesian Mission Training Establishment, Avhich are situated on one of the bays in Auckland Harbour, about six miles distant from the city, and are in many respects well adapted to the purposes of a naval training school. Thirty acres of good land attached to the buildings afford the inmates ample opportunity of gaining a practical acquaintance with gardening, farming, and dairy management. A small schooner, the property of the school, is made use of for imparting to the boys a practical knowledge of seamanship. The school Avas in charge of the Marine Department until July 29th, 1880, when it was transferred to the Education Department. The Secretary for Education, the Inspector-General of Schools, and the Inspector of Native Schools, have been appointed inspectors of the Training School, with instructions to visit it as often as opportunity offers. All these officers have inspected the school—six visits having already been made by them —and they have by their counsel and suggestions endeavoured to assist the manager in promoting the success of the school. The day-school, which was formerly conducted by one of the seamen instructors, is noAv in charge of a trained schoolmaster, and the Auckland Board at the request of the Government has directed its chief Inspector of Schools to place it on the list of schools under his charge. The day-school has also been reorganised, with a view to secure for the boys the greatest possible progress in common-school education. Some improvements have been effected in the buildings during the past year, and others are in contemplation. At the close of 1879 there were 58 boys in the school. During the past year 32 boys entered and 35 left; the number remaining on December 31st, 1880, being 55. The following table shoAVs the several destinations of the 35 boys that left the school in 1880:—
