This is the old school in Värmlands Nysäter. I don't know when it was built, but I know that my grandmother went to school there some year during the 1930-1940.
The school is still in use and my two oldest kids have attended their first three years in school there. After the summervacation my third child starts his first year at the same school.
From the begginning the upper floor were where the teacher lived and in the lower floor they had two classrooms.
Not much has been done to the building, but there are a new roof and new stairs at the front.
Nice old windows. On the upper floor they have classes for the seven- and eightyearsold children and on the lower floor for the sixyearsold ones.
At the side of the school the old stairs still stands...
On the back of the school there were toilettes when my Granny were a kid. One side for boys and one for girls. I haven't got a clue what they have there today though...

SvaraRaderaRealy nice building full with memories :)
SvaraRaderaA lovely building in continuous use.
SvaraRaderaI like the idea of several generations attending the same school which looks like it's still quite serviceable. (I also see your lilacs are blooming!)
SvaraRaderaHow marvelous that it has been in use as a school all these years! And how delightful for your children to know about all their family members that have attended school there! Great tradition in this ever changing world we live in! Have a great week, Shannara!
