EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Barnet Industrial School in Hertfordshire during the early 1900s. The image shows a group of young boys, dressed in simple clothing, standing proudly in front of horses and carts laden with milk churns. The boys, each holding a milk pail, seem to be waiting for their turn to help load the carts or perhaps to collect the milk from the churns. The Barnet Industrial School was established to provide care and support for children in need, offering a refuge for those who were orphaned, abandoned, or otherwise unable to live with their families. The milk round was an essential part of the school's daily routine, teaching the boys valuable life skills and contributing to the school's self-sufficiency. The horses and carts were likely owned by the school or provided by local farmers, and the milk was produced by the school's own dairy herd or sourced from local farms. The boys' role in the milk round was an important responsibility, as it ensured that the school had a steady supply of fresh milk for the children's meals and for sale to the local community. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Barnet Industrial School and the essential role that community support and cooperation played in providing care and support for vulnerable children during this period. The boys in the photograph appear to be engaged and focused on their task, demonstrating the importance of hard work and teamwork in the context of their care and upbringing.
