EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the National Children's Home (NCH) in Harpenden, showcasing the dedication and focus of its young residents as they work in the carpentry workshop. The boys, dressed in simple attire, are engrossed in their tasks, with one boy in the foreground meticulously repairing a table. The workshop, filled with various tools and woodworking equipment, serves as a testament to the practical skills being taught and the sense of purpose instilled in these children. The atmosphere is one of industry and camaraderie, as the boys collaborate and learn from one another under the watchful eye of their carpentry instructor. The National Children's Home, founded in 1884, was a charity dedicated to providing care, education, and training for children in need. This photograph, with its poignant and timeless image of children at work, offers a powerful reminder of the transformative power of education and the importance of providing opportunities for young people to learn and grow.
