EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the nostalgic era of May 1956, where schoolchildren at Lancastrian Infants School in Chichester are seen enjoying their time in the playground. The image captures a moment filled with youthful energy and innocence. The children, neatly dressed in their school uniforms consisting of tunics for girls and shorts for boys, can be seen engaging in various activities. Some are skillfully balancing on a fence while others play games or chat animatedly with their friends. Their smiles radiate pure joy as they relish this precious break from classroom studies. This snapshot not only showcases the vibrant atmosphere of a typical 1950s primary school but also highlights the importance placed on physical education (PE) during that time. It is evident that these young students were encouraged to stay active and develop their motor skills through playful interactions. As we gaze upon this historical photograph from West Sussex County Council's Chichester Photographic Collection, we cannot help but appreciate how times have changed since then. Yet, some things remain timeless – the laughter of children echoing across generations and the significance of education in shaping young minds. Let this image transport you to an era when orchard avenues served as gateways to knowledge and friendships blossomed amidst innocent adventures.
