Children playing in snow

July 1966

A group of unidentified children playing in the snow at Huntsbury Home. Some of the children are using buckets to make snowmen, while others appear to be making snow balls. Handwritten annotation on the reverse reads: “Snow at Huntsbury Cashmere Hills. Paul & Yvonne Abernethy stayed there. July 1967? 1966. Came with a letter from Matron. Yvon Dixon.”
