School Camp at Govilon in The Early 1930s

The children of the unemployed were taken to school camp in Govilon for a week. At the time there was an R.A.F. camp being built, after which we knew as St. Athens. When went to the beach we were told to each bring a pebble ready to put where the ofices were to be built. Best Regards. Idris Bowen
