EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting world of Lancastrian Infants School in Chichester, May 1956. The image, part of the esteemed Chichester Photographic Society Collection at West Sussex Record Office, captures a nature lesson unfolding amidst the innocence and curiosity of young minds. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a group of school children eagerly engaged in an outdoor classroom experience. Clad in their sturdy overalls, boys and girls alike are immersed in the wonders of nature within their school playground. With wide eyes and animated expressions, they listen intently as their teacher imparts knowledge about the natural world that surrounds them. The scene exudes an atmosphere filled with joyous exploration and boundless enthusiasm for learning. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on education during this era - where hands-on experiences were valued just as much as traditional classroom instruction. As we gaze upon this nostalgic photograph, it reminds us of simpler times when children reveled in discovering new things outdoors rather than being confined solely to textbooks. It is a poignant reminder that education extends far beyond four walls; it encompasses every aspect of our surroundings. This remarkable image from West Sussex County Council's archives encapsulates not only a specific moment but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era long gone – one characterized by youthful wonderment and unbridled curiosity about the natural world around us.
