School Panto - 1914

The pantomime was organised to raise money to buy wool so that the pupils and staff could knit scarves and gloves and socks for the soldiers during the First World War.

Daisy Wiseman is on the left as the fairy, Monica Farrant is on the right as the witch and the royal couple in the centre were played by two pupil teachers - Dorothy (Dolly) James and Madge Evans.

The pantomime took place in Dr. Russell's hall in Scotland Hill. The hall was later sold to Over's, the Camberley firm, to house their furniture.
