EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the Sheep Hatch Camp Schools on 5th October 1945. The image showcases a view of wooden buildings nestled amidst a vast expanse of lush green grass, evoking a sense of tranquility and simplicity. The George Garland Collection, preserved by the West Sussex Record Office, offers us an invaluable glimpse into the past. This particular photograph captures the essence of national unity during the 1940s, as it portrays temporary accommodation for evacuees seeking refuge from World War II. The camp's rustic charm is evident through its wooden structures that blend harmoniously with nature's backdrop. It serves as a poignant reminder of how communities came together to provide solace and respite during challenging times. Looking closely at this snapshot, one can almost imagine children playing freely on that expansive grassy area - their laughter echoing through time. Sheep Hatch Camp Schools became more than just shelter; they transformed into havens where young minds could learn and grow amidst adversity. This historical gem also hints at another aspect: holiday spirit amid hardship. Despite wartime constraints, individuals found ways to create moments of joy and escape within these walls. The camp offered not only sanctuary but also opportunities for families to forge lasting memories against all odds. As we gaze upon this remarkable photo print, let us appreciate its significance in preserving our collective heritage while honoring those who sought comfort within these humble yet resilient surroundings.
