Possilpark Public School

A cookery lesson at Possilpark Public School in 1916. The classroom has a combination of regular desks and more specialised cookery equipment.

The girl closest to the camera is tending to two large pots on a stove while her classmates listen attentively to their teacher. The headmaster, John Craig, is standing near the door.
