At a Meeting,
of May, 1825, it,
Botolph's. Bishopegate,
readitaisndpraporopsrocavt:—
for the
reception of the , • of age.
The object r care of
the Children , ; necessary
avocations of tn. arated from
each other ; to form the Children tc habits orobt;dience, good
order, and attention ; and to give them such elementary instruction '
• may prepare them for entering with idrantage into tnose Schools '
where they may acquire useful knowledge, and be taught the grew
truths and duties of Religion.
(heat inconvenience is at present experienced in the Natiotal
&hoar, from the number of Children under the age of six ears
raising for admission, who, having been taught no habits oldbodp-
Nee or good order, greatly ember's.. and impede the prom of
instruction in the Szhools. For this evil an efl"eetual remedy will
be furnished by an Infant School, on: of which a regular supply
of well-trained Children, imbued with the rudimedits of know.
ledge, will be from time to time foil:jibed to the National Schools.
It is no unimportant recommendation of such Establishments,
that by promoting cleanliness and regular exercise on the part of
the Children, they tend greatly to secure the health of the rising
generation. Those who are aceussurr.d to vLsit the Children of the
Poor best know how many cases of disease. deformity, and bodily
incapacity are to be met with, arising from confinement in crowded
moms with an impure atmosphere, front other dangerous ex-
posures, and particularly from tame distressing accidents by tire
which are of such frequent occurrence.
It is ro pert of the design of this Institution to relieve Parents
prematurely from the care of their Children, or to effect any greater,
separation bet Ween then) than even now unavoidably takes place;
the hours of attendance at the Ssttnoi beingorly those in which
the Parents are at present either entirely absent front their Children
or prevented bestowing any care upon them.
Whereupon it war resolved-
-Ist. That for the reasons stated in the foregoing Address. it is
desirable to establish in the Cur of London one or more Infant
Schools for the reception of the Children of the Poor, from two to
six years of age.
