HARVEST-HOME AT THE PHILANTHROPIC SOCIETY'S FARM-SCHOOL, REDHILL, 1864. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.
Harvest-home at the Philanthropic Society's farm-school, Redhill, 1864. 'This institution...is designed for the instruction and moral reformation chiefly of boys under fifteen years of age, who have been convicted of crime and sentenced to a few years' detention in a reformatory under the Juvenile Offenders' Act. The...[boys] are employed in field labour, garden and house work, brickmaking...[etc]. After their discharge a portion of them...are assisted to emigrate...The harvest home...attracted a number of visitors to see the games in a field near the farmyard...Here, though the wet grass and soft ground somewhat interfered with the exercises, the boys contended for prizes, in hurdle-racing, long and high jumping, flat-racing, jumping in sacks, trussed racing, balance riding, and climbing. A contest of a more irregular but not less agreeable character took place in the form of a very amusing scramble for a sackfull of apples, in the course of which no small amount of tumbling about was to be seen, and a few pretty hard knocks were received by the actors, who took all in good part and appeared each well satisfied with his share. Prizes for general conduct, progress in school, cleanliness and order, were given'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864. Harvest-home at the Philanthropic Society's farm-school, Redhill, 1864.

SCHOOL FOR DAUGHTERS OF OFFICERS OF THE ARMY, LANSDOWNE COLLEGE, BATH, 1864. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.
School for daughters of officers of the [British] Army, Lansdowne College, Bath, 1864. 'We have engraved a View of Lansdowne College, Bath, recently purchased for the accommodation of the School for Daughters of Officers in the Army, whose claims were advocated at a public meeting in Willis's Rooms, the Duke of Cambridge presiding, on the 7th of April last. Generals Sir William Gomm, Sir R. Dacres, Sir R. Airey, and Sir Edward Cust, the Rev. the Chaplain- General, and others, took part in the proceedings on that occasion. His Royal Highness then stated that the committee had already begun its work, and that a building had been obtained in the neighbourhood of Bath. A small sum would be needed to render it serviceable for the purposes intended, and an income of £2000 or £3000 a year would, for the present, be sufficient to set it going. We may add that the edifice here represented is that which was formerly known as the Lansdowne Training College. This building, which originally cost £14,000, was bought by the committee for less than a quarter of that sum, and can, at an outlay of about £5000, be rendered serviceable for the accommodation of about 120 inmates. It has eight acres of ground attached to it, and its situation is healthy'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864. School for daughters of officers of the Army, Lansdowne College, Bath, 1864.

RIPLEY'S HOSPITAL, LANCASTER, FOR ORPHANS AND DESTITUTE CHILDREN, 1864. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.
Ripley's Hospital, Lancaster, for orphans and destitute children, 1864. School founded by Mrs. Julia Ripley in memory of her husband, Thomas Ripley, a merchant of Liverpool. Originally endowed for the education of an equal number of boys and girls, the parents of whom had to have lived for at least 2 years immediately preceding the death of the father. The school was built in the early pointed style of the 12th century. The building, originally costing £30,000, included a gym, woodwork and metalwork rooms, a domestic school for girls, and heated swimming-pool, four courts for playing fives, and enough full-sized football pitches to allow 150 boys to play at the same time. A farm of some 40 acres kept the school supplied with home produced meat, milk and poultry, and a vast kitchen garden gave a constant supply of fresh vegetables. All pupils received a practical education based on Christian principles. When they reached leaving age, they were given special training in the trade or profession for which they showed an aptitude. They were also given help to find suitable employment. Many old scholars went on to become successful businessmen, journalists, teachers, nurses, social workers and skilled workers in many trades.
