The students and teachers at Wadestown Primary School in Wellington celebrate with a fancy dress parade, folk dances and games.

A blackboard lists dance items to be performed by various classes attending the Wadestown 1943 celebrations. Children in fancy dress parade around the school yard while parents look on. All the different classes to perform their items have their turn. The costumes are very imaginative and colourful. Everyone is enjoying themselves. Blackboard reads: “Wadestown School 1944”. (B&W) More scenes of children in costumes parading and performing their folk dances. [ Includes young Dr C. Beeby in play sword fight].
