Description
Pix magazine ran a 3 page story about the Forest Hill Kindergarten Holiday Home in 1945. There are a number of photographs of children doing various activities at the holiday home. Please note that male and female children are topless in these photos and there is one image of a naked child in the shower. One of the captions states that the Home supplied the children with outfit for day and night wear during their stay, and that during summer, shoes and shorts were the only outdoor costume. Many of the children's full names are included in the captions.
