English Schools: Hexham School--Winterwear

Hexham School
Figure 1.--Gere we have a portrait from ghe Hexham School, we think in the late-1960s. We think it is two classes (forms) photographed together. Note the girl holding some form of ward in the center. State primaries did not have uniforms, until some began introducing them in the 1960s. Stargely the boys are wearing a uniform, white shirts, ties and we think short pants. The girls are, however, not wearing a uniform. That was unusul, schools that intriduced uniforms usually did it for both the boys and girls.

We have a photograph of the students at Hexham School arriving at school on a snowy day. It was probably taken in the 1960s. Hexham is in Northumberland meaning the far nort of England. Here therev is a little more snow than warmer southrrn England. But England does not geteaklly heavy snows even in the north, despite its northrn lsttitude. We see a lot of childrern after World War wearinng duffle coats, a popular winter style. .
