LSA ID: LSA/1576
Description: Group of people in front of wooded hill and a lorry carrying many milk churns. The group of young people all have clip board and pads are seem to be writing/ drawing the milk churns. The school party are walking towards a large Tudor styled timber house, that is possible a farmhouse as there seems to be outbuildings attached to it and surrounding it. The young people are now in the farmyard and there are farm outhouses and a tractor in the yard. All the trousers worn by the young people are flares.
The group are now on a woodland path in a mature forest with dappled sunlight streaming through the trees. They are carrying bags and clipboards. The young men have long hair and mullets, typical of the 70's.
It is raining and the group are walking by a rugby pitch under umbrellas and in wet weather gear. We are in a High Street and a group of female students are sheltering in a doorway with their clipboards. They are intent on their work. A view up the wet High Street, a couple of boys in blue and yellow flared loons are in an open doorway working on their clipboards.
We are in a gym and a group of younger students are in gym kit. A pupil is doing a gymnastic routine on padded floor mat, whilst the group observe. A young Afro Caribbean girl does a routine. The film then breaks up.
