EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of daily life at the Anerley Residential School for Older Deaf Boys in London during the early 1900s. The image, taken in one of the cottage homes, shows a group of young deaf boys sitting around a long table, engaged in the simple yet essential activity of having their dinner. The boys, dressed in their best clothes, appear focused and content as they eat, their expressions conveying a sense of community and companionship. The London School Boards, a charitable organization dedicated to providing education and care for children with disabilities, established the Anerley Residential School in 1885 to cater to the needs of older deaf boys who had completed their primary education. The cottage homes, which housed small groups of students, provided a more familial and nurturing environment than the larger institutional settings of the time. Despite the challenges of communicating with their deaf students, the dedicated staff at the Anerley School went to great lengths to ensure their physical, emotional, and educational needs were met. Meals were an important part of the daily routine, and the communal dining experience fostered a sense of belonging and socialization. This photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the past, reminding us of the vital role that residential schools and care homes played in providing essential care and support for children with disabilities, and the importance of creating inclusive and welcoming environments for all.
