EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a nostalgic moment in time at the Lancastrian Infants School in Chichester, back in May 1956. The image showcases two young girls enjoying themselves in the school playground, their carefree spirits evident as they frolic on the grassy field. Dressed impeccably for the era, one of the girls is wearing a traditional kilt with a tartan pattern, while her companion sports a cute dress with plaits adorning her hair. Both girls are sporting glasses, perhaps an indication of their studious nature even during playtime. The simplicity of this snapshot transports us to an era when education was highly valued and children found joy amidst simple pleasures. The wooden fence behind them serves as a reminder of innocence and safety within these school grounds. Their sandals suggest warm weather and freedom to explore without constraint. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Chichester Photographic Collection, this photograph offers us a glimpse into the past – capturing not just an ordinary day at school but also reflecting societal norms and fashion trends prevalent during that period
