Craftwork at Newtown Church School

  • Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / The National Library of Wales said:
    Children and young people had their own roles and duties alongside adults in the effort on the home front. They were often encouraged to help out with various activities. In this sewing class in a Newtown school in 1939, the girls are making covers for their gas masks. School children were constantly drilled in the care of their gasmasks and their proper use.

Boys of the Newtown Scout troop collecting waste paper

from Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / The National Library of Wales

  • Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / The National Library of Wales said:
    Children often helped out with the salvage effort. In November 1939 these members of the 1st Newtown Scout troop used a horse and cart to collect waste paper from around the town.
  • Tightfisted Home said:
    I like how the smallest and youngest is left to hold the horse. Looking at this, it appears to have been photographed on High Street, outside The Buck Inn and Boots, facing the Market Hall.
  • Kay said:
    What grabs my attention the most is the impish little lad in the front, with his stance, hand on the stack on the cart, and that sweet little look on his face. Priceless! This is a wonderful photograph.
