UMA ESCOLA INFANTIL NA GRÃ-BRETANHA
EM BREVE PODEM AJUDAR A MÃI
Na Escola Infantil de Tarner Lands, no sul da Inglaterra, as crianças aprendem a trabalhar à moda de brincadeira. Gostam de descascar
ervilhas ou pôr a mesa para o jantar. Algumas vezes até ajudam a lavar pequenas peças de roupa. As gravuras acima mostram as crianças a
trabalhar, mas mais parece brincadeira. Na gravura grande vê-se um grupo que volta do jardim. Foram apanhar ruibarbo, que usam como guarda-
sóis a caminho da escola. A reitora desta escola, Miss Sutton, e o seu pessoal, sabem a maneira de conservar as crianças interessadas e
alegres. As crianças nem sabem que estão na escola, e às vezes, quando as mãis as vão buscar, as crianças não gostam de acabar com a
'brincadeira'.

[Older children help to lay the table. Shelling peas is a game which helps cook. A nursery school in Britain. They'll soon be helping
mother. At the Tarner Lands Nursery School in Southern England work is turned into play for the children. They find it fun to shell peas or
to lay the table for dinner. Sometimes they even help with light laundry. The pictures above show the tiny tots hard at work, but no one
would dream that they were working. The big picture shows a group returning from the garden. They have been picking rhubarb, which they are
using as sunshades on the way back to school. The headmistress of this school, Miss Sutton, and her staff are adepts at keeping the
children interested and happy. It doesn't seem like school at all to the children, and often mothers arrive to take them home just as they
'were having such a good time.' For victory. The Press and Information Service of the British Embassy.]
