EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the nostalgic era of May 1956, at Lancastrian Infants School in Chichester. The image showcases two young girls engrossed in their reading, surrounded by an atmosphere of learning and warmth. Dressed smartly in their school uniforms, complete with bows adorning their hair, these pupils epitomize the innocence and curiosity of childhood. Seated on a cozy rug atop a polished wooden floor, they find solace in a rocking chair placed near an inviting fireplace. The brickwork adds character to the room while emanating a sense of comfort. A bookshelf filled with knowledge stands proudly beside them, adorned with cherished ornaments that add charm to this educational haven. The photograph captures not only the physical surroundings but also highlights the importance of education during this time period. These two girls are immersed in literature as they delve into books that transport them to different worlds and expand their horizons. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Chichester Photographic Collection, this snapshot serves as a timeless reminder of simpler times when children found joy through reading and imagination rather than modern distractions. It is an ode to the power of education and how it shapes young minds for future success
