EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in 1937, this print showcases a group of women visitors gathered in front of the enchanting ivy-clad Shirley Residential School in Croydon, London. The image exudes an air of elegance as these respectable ladies stand proudly before a luxurious Pullman coach parked nearby. The photograph offers us a glimpse into the past, where education was highly valued and celebrated. These female visitors, dressed impeccably in their stylish hats and dresses, symbolize the importance placed on learning during that era. As they explore the grounds of this esteemed educational institution, one can only imagine the excitement and curiosity that filled their hearts. Located on Wickham Road, this school holds historical significance as it was under the jurisdiction of both Greater London Council (GLC) and London County Council (LCC). Its association with these prominent councils further emphasizes its reputation for providing quality education to young minds. This snapshot not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then. It is through such glimpses into our past that we gain insight into our collective journey towards progress and enlightenment.
