There were also varying conventins for the children attending day schools. This included both boys attending private and state day schools. Some mothers insisted that that boys change clothes before they went out to play. Others did not insist, but boys wanted to change out of their school clothes are school uniform. Oher boys could not be bothered. Boys going to private school often got home later than boys going to stte schools. Many didn't change because there wasn't much time to go out and play. This varied, however, from family to family.
