EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print from 1966, we are transported back to the Court Lodge Primary School in Horley, Surrey. The children of this school are preparing for their highly anticipated pantomime performance of "The Pied Piper" but with a unique twist - they will be performing on roller skates! Their headmistress believes that roller skating not only adds an element of fun and excitement to their production but also helps develop poise and self-confidence among the young performers. Captured during a rehearsal, the image shows two mischievous rats struggling with their roller skates. Dressed in adorable rat costumes, these little actors find themselves in quite a predicament as they attempt to maintain balance on wheels. Despite their fall and momentary difficulty, laughter fills the air as fellow classmates cheer them on. This photograph beautifully encapsulates the joyous spirit of Christmas traditions at Court Lodge Primary School. It highlights both the dedication of teachers fostering creativity through unconventional means and the resilience of children embracing new challenges with enthusiasm. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder that education can extend beyond textbooks and classrooms – it can encompass playfulness, camaraderie, and unforgettable memories. Dave Johnson's expertly captured moment invites us to reflect upon our own childhood experiences while celebrating timeless traditions that continue to shape generations at Court Lodge Primary School.
