Hanham National School - date please!

If your mum was at the school in the mid twenties, and this photo is twenty or so years earlier, I wonder if one of the children could be her mum or dad???

Thank you Igor - a good guess, but my mum's father was born in 1881, and was brought up in St George.  He was married 3 times, to wives born between 1876 and 1880.

There were 3 sets of children, with birth dates between 1907 to 1928, so I don't know if any of them would be infant age in our 1902-1908 timespan?

This may be of interest. 

It belongs to the Hanham Local History Society and is noted Samuel Whites or Hanham Wesleyan circa 1906.  The dress of the children and in particular the teacher's hairstyle are very similar.  Quality of the image is not great though.
