EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the 1970s, capturing a glimpse of the Special School in Gabalfa, Cardiff. The image showcases some of the bustling classrooms filled with eager children engaged in their education. However, what truly stands out is the juxtaposition between the school and its proximity to the busy traffic at the flyover on Caerphilly and Merthyr road. The photograph serves as a reminder of how close this educational institution was situated to one of Cardiff's major transportation routes. It raises questions about safety concerns during that time period, highlighting an era when road safety regulations were still evolving. Despite being surrounded by cars zooming past on these roads, it is heartening to see children playing freely within this educational haven. Located in South Glamorgan, Wales, this snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also symbolizes resilience and determination within our education system. It represents an era where schools like Gabalfa's Special School provided invaluable support for children with special needs. As we reflect upon this powerful image captured by Staff on June 19th, 1974, it serves as a testament to both progress made since then and challenges yet to be overcome regarding road safety near educational institutions.
