| New Norcia (Benedictines) | Gymnastics | Diet: bread, meat, tea, rice, vegetables, &c. Gymnastics necessary to prevent sickness. “The idea of bringing savages from their wild state at once to an advanced civilization serves no other purpose than that of murdering them.” This out-door training has been hitherto successful “in preventing the destructive effects of this error.” |

| St. Michael’s | No | Diet regular and simple. |
| Ekukanyeni | Yes | Room well ventilated. Diet: porridge, meat, and and coffee. The greatest danger to the children is to be apprehended from their carelessness about getting wet with European clothing on them. In their native state they are used to be wet. And their bodies are easily warmed and dried at the hut fire. Thus they care little about rain. And, being exposed to the sudden storms of a semi-tropical climate, they are constantly found sitting in wet flannels and jerseys, and suffer much from coughs and colds. It cannot be doubted that much pulmonary disease will thus be generated by the very effort to improve their condition, unless constant care be taken to guard against this danger. |
