Description

Activities taking place at the Holy Infant's School in Bolton. A school master is seen showing a group of young boys how to correctly hold a cricket bat, during a games lesson - outside in the playground. Miss Cowen teaches a new dance to a group of senior girls - they all lock hands and dance around the school field, in a large circle. Concludes with brief close up shots of final year students, prior to them leaving the school.
