Show detail Hide detail

This film is about what is being done for young Australia in the schools besides the teaching of the three "R's". It shows medium shots of children walking hand in hand into a school yard and children in the playground. Two boys smile at the camera and some girls play a dancing game. Other shots of the children playing include two girls on an unusual see saw. Instead of sitting on the see saw, they hang down from what looks like a ladder suspended between two planks of wood. An intertitle reads "Wise discipline tempers youthful exuberance". There are high angle shot of boys running around. They suddenly stop and walk off to the right, followed by a woman teacher. The children then march back into view. They march on the spot then file off, some to the left and some to the right. A school marching band then moves forward. There is a high angle shot of the boys marching. An intertitle reads "Physical training is a recognized feature of our educational curriculum." There is a high angle shot of boys moving around. They suddenly freeze and then form into lines. High angle shot of a vast number of boys exercising in unison. They put their arms forward, above their heads then down by their sides. They then raise their arms and bend their legs to squat. They straighten up again.
