EDITORS COMMENTS
A glimpse into the past: Boys at Work in the Bakery at the National Children's Home, Harpenden. This evocative photograph captures the daily routine of the National Children's Home (NCH) in Harpenden, with boys busy at work in the bakery. The warm glow of the oven illuminates their faces as they carefully remove freshly baked loaves, their uniforms neatly pressed and aprons dusted with flour. The trolley stacked high with loaves, ready to be distributed, speaks to the efficiency and productivity of the home's operations. The National Children's Home, founded in 1887, was a charitable institution dedicated to providing care and education for orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children. The boys in this photograph, with their focused expressions and determined posture, embody the resilience and determination that defined the lives of many children in care during this era. The exact date of this photograph is unknown, but it offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life and routines of the National Children's Home in Harpenden, a place where children were given the opportunity to learn valuable skills and build a better future for themselves.
