I have received a few questions about the Good Manners Chart I posted the other day. Here is the scoop --
It came from a Queensland Government Library Services site. Here is a portion of the info found there . . .
The 'Good Manners' chart was first issued to Queensland schools in 1898.
The rules covered personal conduct at home, at school, at play, in the street, at the table and general courtesy.
As part of lessons on 'Conduct and Manners', the teacher would run through the chart, while the children repeated each rule several times. The students were required to then put into practice, in the classroom and the playground, the instruction received.
The chart continued to be issued to Queensland schools until the 1960s.
