Description: | During WWII most inner-city school children were evacuated to safer areas. Students from the Barrett Street school were evacuated to Maidenhead. This photograph is described in one London College of Fashion Archive source as being an 1944 Empire Day celebration, and is identified in another source as being a 1945 Peace celebration. It is unclear which event is being celebrated. Empire day for 1944 would have occurred on Wednesday, May 24. | Subjects: | photograph uniforms flag Administration: female students evacuation | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Photographer unknown Creator Corporate Name: Barrett Street school | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=7623... | Go to resource |
