The High School

 | The Old School: A series of photos and comments, orchestrated no doubt by
the then headmistress, aimed at placing pressure on the Education
Authorities to sanction funding for the new High School: an early, use of
photography for political / propaganda purposes. The photos also tell an
interesting story of the hidden curriculum being imparted by the School. By
the presence of Kitchener, a guess at their date might be the early years of
WWI. |
 | Letter about Old School: Letter describing the conditions in the
Old School in Waterloo St. |
 | The New School: Some twenty odd stunning photos of the new School,
taken, presumably, about 1926/7. The scans, which have had to crop the
originals, do not do them justice; their framing, sense of space and light and
even grandeur are curtailed. But they are still an architectural eye
opener. |
 | The Uniform: An insight into the detailed mind of
School Governance. |
 | School 2002: Some quickly take photos in 2002. |
