School Life and Childhood
The Dacorum Heritage Trust and Age Concern are working together, thanks to a grant from the Dacorum Community Trust, to produce a new 'School Life and Childhood' box which will be piloted at the 7 Day Care centres in Dacorum before becoming a permanent resource for the Trust.
The images below have been selected from the DHT collection for inclusion in the new box but we would like to hear from you as to which images you feel would best fit into the new box. Please contact Isobel at the Dacorum Heritage Trust with comments and suggestions.
Would you like to buy a high-quality copy of one of these photographs? We can supply A4-sized prints on glossy white photo paper. Please see: Photographs
