EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in 1893, a group of young, eager children tend to the Winter Garden at St Pancras Schools in Leavesden, Hertfordshire. The schools, which were established to provide education and shelter for pauper children away from the workhouse system, were a significant endeavor to improve the lives of those in need. The image captures the children's determination and focus as they work together, using hoes and rakes to maintain the lush, green Winter Garden. The garden, a testament to the schools' commitment to creating a nurturing environment, is a stark contrast to the austere conditions that many of these children would have faced in the workhouses. The St Pancras Schools were designed to be self-sufficient, with facilities including classrooms, dormitories, a laundry, an infirmary, and even a swimming bath. These amenities were intended to provide the children with a sense of normalcy and stability, allowing them to thrive in their educational pursuits. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of these young students, who were given the opportunity to learn and grow in a supportive environment. The image also serves as a reminder of the importance of community, hard work, and the power of education to transform lives, particularly for those who have faced adversity. This photograph, taken over a century ago, remains a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination of young people, and the impact that a nurturing environment can have on their development. The Winter Garden at St Pancras Schools in Leavesden, Hertfordshire, stands as a testament to the enduring power of education and the importance of creating opportunities for growth and improvement, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
