Description

This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 17 February 1958, page 8: "The children of the Ashhurst School lost no time in testing the temperature of the new baths at the school which were opened officially on Saturday. Here they splash joyously as those on the sideline move back from the shower of water thrown up."
