EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Girls School in Fianarantsoa, Madagascar, circa 1907. The image shows a group of young girls, dressed in simple yet colorful garments, gathered around a large wooden tub, assisted by a maid in traditional Malagasy attire. The girls are engaged in the essential farm chores of washing and grinding the harvest, likely rice or corn, as part of their daily routine. The school, known for its commitment to providing quality education, aimed to instill a strong work ethic and self-sufficiency in its students. The scene unfolds outside, with lush greenery and the vibrant colors of the girls' dresses contrasting against the earthy tones of the farm. The presence of the maid underscores the communal nature of life at the school, where students learned not only academic skills but also valuable life lessons through hands-on experiences. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of girls at the Girls School in Fianarantsoa during the early 1900s, highlighting the importance of education and the interconnectedness of learning and farming in the Malagasy community.
