Carolyn and David thank you both  - they do look brighter!    ;D

- I still think the teacher looks defeated - but there is nothing you can do about his attitude!!  ;)  Maybe he didn't relish the idea of a day with that wide range of ages!  ::)  - - - (Grew up in a one teacher primary school myself!   We became fairly self-sufficient I thought, but it must have been hard work for the teacher!    :-\)

Terrific - thanks very much Morrie!    Reckon it must have been taken around 1895ish.

It is an interesting array of kids isn't it - the usual mix of tykes, goodies and tough nuts!!! Nothing changes except the clothing and hair styles! 

I like it very much!
