1950s Boys Education Fence Girls Grass Kilt Pupils Uniform Lesson Plait Rope
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a nostalgic moment in time - the lively playground of Lancastrian Infants School in Chichester, May 1956. The image showcases a delightful mix of schoolboys and schoolgirls, all dressed smartly in their uniforms. The boys sported trousers and shirts, while the girls wore adorable kilts with neatly tied plaits cascading down their backs. The children are seen engrossed in various activities that epitomize the innocence and joy of childhood. Some boys can be spotted energetically playing ball near the fence, showcasing their athletic skills. A group of girls is engaged in an exciting game of skipping rope on the grassy field nearby. Amidst this vibrant scene, it is evident that education was at the forefront as well. In one corner, a small cluster of pupils gathers around a teacher who imparts valuable lessons to them under the warm spring sun. This photograph from West Sussex County Council's Chichester Photographic Society Collection evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when children found happiness through simple pleasures like playtime with friends. It serves as a poignant reminder of how education has always been intertwined with fun and camaraderie within these hallowed school grounds
