EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "To school by ambulance, London, c1903" takes us back in time to the early 20th century. The image captures a scene of young schoolchildren making their way to school in the bustling streets of London. In this era, transportation was limited compared to today's standards, and it is fascinating to see how children were transported for their education. The photograph showcases a horse-drawn ambulance that doubles as a means of transporting these eager students. It speaks volumes about the dedication and commitment towards providing access to education even during challenging times. A group of girls can be seen sitting inside the ambulance, eagerly peering out through its windows with excitement on their faces. The setting exudes an old-world charm with narrow lanes and avenues lined with traditional British architecture. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the daily lives of children from different backgrounds who would gather together for learning despite any obstacles they may face. Preserved through time by George R. Sims in his book Living London, this print serves as a reminder of our rich educational heritage and the resilience shown by generations past. It allows us to reflect on how far we have come in terms of transportation and accessibility while appreciating the efforts made by those before us to ensure that every child has access to knowledge regardless of circumstances or location.
