EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Infant schools at home and abroad" captures a glimpse into the early 20th century educational system. Taken by an English photographer, this image is part of a private collection. It was originally published as an illustration for The Harmsworth Encyclopaedia around 1922. The photograph showcases two contrasting scenes from infant schools in different parts of the world. On one side, we see a group of children gathered in what appears to be St Vincent de Paul creche in Paris. The little ones are engaged in a roll call, under the watchful eyes of their caring sisters. This depiction highlights the nurturing environment provided by these institutions. On the other side, we witness students at Denmark Hill School in London participating in kindergarten activities. Some children can be seen diligently working on basket making projects while others engage with their classmates. This scene emphasizes both academic and practical learning within these early educational settings. Through this image, we gain insight into the diverse approaches taken towards education during that era. From France to England, infant schools played a crucial role in shaping young minds and preparing them for future challenges. This historical snapshot serves as a reminder of how knowledge was imparted to our youngest learners during the twentieth century – through structured classrooms filled with curiosity-driven activities and dedicated educators guiding them along their journey towards intellectual growth.
