EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph from the early 20th century, we are transported to a classroom at Albion Street Girls School in Rotherhithe, London. The image captures an intimate moment during a biology lesson on the parts of a flower. Seated at their wooden desks with rapt attention, the girls of Class IIIB eagerly absorb knowledge imparted by their dedicated teacher. The room is filled with an air of curiosity and wonder as they delve into the mysteries of nature. The scene exudes simplicity and charm; rows of neatly arranged furniture create a sense of orderliness while allowing each student to focus on her studies. The young schoolgirls themselves radiate innocence and enthusiasm for learning. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into education in early 20th-century England. It reminds us that even amidst bustling city life in London's Southwark borough, schools like Albion Street provided opportunities for young women to explore subjects such as science and botany. Preserved by the Greater London Council's photograph library at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this timeless image serves as both a historical record and an inspiration for future generations. It stands as testament to the dedication of teachers who nurtured young minds through engaging lessons on nature's wonders. As we gaze upon these determined faces absorbed in their studies over a century ago, we are reminded that education has always been vital
