EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a general view of Penwartha School from the front in Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. Steeped in history and nestled amidst the picturesque Cornish landscape, this educational institution served as a beacon of knowledge for generations. The image showcases the impressive architecture of Penwartha Board school, with its grand facade standing proudly against the backdrop of rolling hills. The school house adjacent to it adds an element of charm and character to this timeless scene. One can only imagine the countless stories that unfolded within these walls over its many years of operation. Sadly, like many institutions, Penwartha School met its end in 1969 when it closed its doors for good. However, through photographs such as this one by Arthur William Jordan - a talented photographer who expertly captured moments frozen in time - we are able to glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. This photograph is more than just a visual representation; it serves as a poignant reminder of how education has shaped communities throughout history. It invites us to reflect on our own experiences within educational settings while also appreciating the rich heritage that exists within Cornwall's educational landscape. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us celebrate both past achievements and future possibilities that lie ahead for schools across Cornwall and beyond.
