Many of the images in Picture Ipswich have been kindly provided by the community. Gems have come to light along the way that are unable to be identified or important information is missing and because of this we seek the community’s help.
The photograph below is believed to have been taken in Ipswich ca. 1895. The man standing on the left is Arthur George Foote who is believed to have been a “pupil teacher” for the Queensland Education Department in the 1890s. The adult male on the right is unidentified but possibly a teacher. The school is unknown but it is thought likely to be Boys’ Central State School.
If you are able to identify the school or any of the people in the image, or provide further information, please contact the Digital Archivist at Ipswich Central Library on 3810 7272 or email:-
