EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Methodist English School in Rangoon, Burma (now Myanmar), during the school holidays in 1952. The image shows the ongoing construction work at the back of the school, replacing the damaged Junior classroom wing. Mrs. Logie, the Headmistress, is overseeing the progress from a distance, with the ruins of the wartime bomb damage visible in the background. The photo offers a glimpse into the 1950s education system in Burma, where students continued to learn amidst the remnants of the destruction caused by the war. The construction work was necessary to ensure a safe and conducive learning environment for the students. The photograph, taken during the school holidays, also highlights the dedication of the school administration to maintain the school facilities despite the challenges posed by the war. This image offers a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination of the Burmese community during the 1950s, as they worked towards rebuilding their lives and their educational institutions after the devastation of war.
