EDITORS COMMENTS
This advertisement from circa 1931 showcases The Shaftesbury Homes and Arethusa Training Ship's announcement of the acquisition of Esher Place, a new location for a girls' school where 170 students will receive the benefits of home influence and domestic training. The advertisement features a portrait of His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales, K.G., who served as the president of The Shaftesbury Homes, adding an esteemed touch to the promotion. The large school photograph accompanying the text displays a class of girls, their faces filled with determination and focus, engaged in their studies. Esher Place, formerly a girl's school, will now provide an environment where young women can learn essential life skills and grow under the guidance of dedicated teachers. The acquisition of Esher Place marked an exciting expansion for The Shaftesbury Homes, an organization dedicated to the welfare and education of children and young people. The annual tuition fee of £36 per year offered an affordable opportunity for families to invest in their daughters' futures. This advertisement is an intriguing piece of history from The Shaftesbury Homes' archive, showcasing their commitment to providing quality education and opportunities for young women during this time. The artwork, with its clean lines and vibrant colors, beautifully captures the essence of the era and the spirit of the organization.
