In another room was exhibited a great variety of war cookery recipes.

After the exhibition there was an address by Mr Brown, H.M.I. of schools. Mr H W Smith presided. Mr Brown said he was delighted five such talent in Denaby. The exhibits and the dancing and singing of the children spoke well for the teachers. Mr W Watson, the Head Teacher, proposed a vote of thanks to the Chairman and Mr Brown. He also thanked the parents and friends for coming in such large numbers. It was important for parents and teachers to work together, because the war had taught them how important was education. He hoped to make that gathering an annual event.
