Activity history

Students wishing to be admitted to the institution's lectures puchased class tickets. It is not known who was involved in the production of these tickets but it was presumably the secretary and lecturers, and, from 1879, perhaps the principal also. The fees for the tickets were determined by the committee of management and, from 1879, the council, in conjunction with the respective lecturers. Each year, the committee of management gave a number of free tickets to apprentices who were unable to pay the fees.
