Fresh Shooters Hill Teacher Woolwich Teaching
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time at the LCC Open-Air School in Shooters Hill, Woolwich. Titled "The Compulsory After-Dinner Rest" this image showcases the unique educational approach of this institution. In the foreground, a group of children can be seen sitting on benches, enjoying their mandatory post-lunch break under the watchful eye of their teacher. The fresh air surrounds them as they relax and recharge before continuing with their studies. The serene atmosphere is palpable through the lens of the English photographer who skillfully captured this scene. Dating back to the 20th century, this print provides us with a glimpse into an era when open-air schools were gaining popularity for their innovative teaching methods. This particular image was originally used as an illustration for "The Teachers Encyclopaedia" edited by A. P Laurie in 1911. As we observe these young students immersed in nature's embrace, it becomes evident that education extends beyond classroom walls. The LCC Open-Air School aimed to provide children with not only academic knowledge but also physical well-being and connection to nature. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to the progressive thinking behind early 20th-century education and reminds us that learning can take place anywhere when creativity meets dedication.
