One of many photographs showing pupils of Hook School, Lydiard Tregoze, though this picture is taken from a less usual position beside the school building.

Frank Rudler of No 2 Council Houses (now Bolingbroke Close, Hook) is seen on the front row, second from the right.

The children do not look particularly happy in this photograph, perhaps a reflection of the hard times that families were facing in the 1920s.
