EDITORS COMMENTS
This school photograph, taken in the quaint village of Cwmcarn, near Crosskeys in Newport, Gwent, Wales, transports us back in time to the 1900s. The image showcases a group of young students, dressed in their best attire, gathered in front of a simple, red-brick schoolhouse. The boys wear collared shirts and shorts, while the girls don long, dark dresses with white collars and ribbons in their hair. The children's expressions vary from serious to playful, capturing the essence of childhood curiosity and innocence. The school, which was likely a one-room building, stands proudly in the background, with tall, wooden windows and a bell tower that once rang to signal the start and end of each school day. The lush, green landscape surrounding the school adds to the idyllic scene, with trees and rolling hills providing a picturesque backdrop. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the lives of these children and their education during the early 1900s in rural Wales. The simple joys of childhood, the importance of education, and the sense of community are all encapsulated in this one image. The photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that have shaped the village of Cwmcarn and the surrounding area.
