Here we see the younger boys at the Ozzano Monferrato School, near Turin. This is presumably the first year class. Almost all of the boys wear suit jackets that button at the collar with kneepants and long stockings. The boys are dressed similarly to other Italian schools we have noted in the early 1920s. A couple of boys appear to be wearing smocks, although it is difficult to tell. Three boys wear garments with button shoulders. It is difficult to make out precisely what the garment is. Notice the number of boys with short cropped hair. Curiously there look to be two girls in the middle of the front row, at least they have long hair. One wears a smock. We are unsure why they would be two girls in an otherwise all-boy class. Perhaps our Italian readers can provide some insight here.
