EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from March 1939, we are transported back in time to the North End School gymnasium. The image showcases a class of enthusiastic students demonstrating their athletic prowess for the camera. With sheer determination etched on their faces, these young athletes showcase their physical abilities with grace and agility. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the wall bars that line one side of the gymnasium. These sturdy props serve as both a training tool and a display of strength and flexibility. As each student effortlessly navigates through various exercises, they exhibit discipline and dedication towards their education. This snapshot not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into the educational practices prevalent during that era. It serves as a testament to how physical education was valued as an integral part of academic development at North End School. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this remarkable image stands as a historical treasure showcasing past generations' commitment to holistic learning experiences. Its significance goes beyond mere documentation; it holds potential value for future researchers exploring educational methodologies or even inspiring present-day educators seeking inspiration from bygone eras. While its original purpose may have been far removed from commercial use, this print now serves as an invaluable resource for understanding our collective heritage and appreciating how education has evolved over time.
