EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1926, we are transported back in time to the Rachel McMillan Nursery School at Deptford. The image showcases a heartwarming scene where American women teachers and North of England students come together for voluntary work at the school. Despite it being summer holidays, the nursery remains open year-round, with around 300 children still attending. The photograph captures the essence of education and playfulness as toddlers explore the school's garden. To engage their curiosity, a variety of animals including goats, rabbits, guinea pigs, canaries, and pigeons are kept within the premises. These furry and feathery companions undoubtedly bring joy and excitement to these young minds. This snapshot not only highlights the dedication of these educators but also emphasizes their commitment to providing an enriching environment for learning. It serves as a testament to how education transcends borders as American teachers collaborate with their counterparts from Northern England. As we admire this vintage print today, let us reflect on how far early childhood education has come while cherishing timeless values such as nurturing creativity and fostering connections between different cultures. This image reminds us that even in simpler times like those of the 1920s, dedicated individuals were already shaping young lives through love and knowledge at places like Rachel McMillan Nursery School in Deptford.
