A visual feast to watch. My mother was born in 1920. Some are grand mother's age. I am 74. You saw how the world looked 100 years ago. Great ! Thanks British pathe for your valuable video They taught children of my mother's age initially.
Proper vocational courses, rest time, excursions, co curricular activities, so many types of fun-filled outdoor slides and swings... Seems that education system was better in 1920 as compared to 2018
Infrastructure is poor as in, has a chance of collapsing, and bad flow of air, bad foundation, no proper water pumping system, no proper toilets, etc. the sheds also become very unhygienic in wet conditions, bacteria growth, moss etc
@@mrsgamer9181 For tropical countries which is sunny year around, there’s no issues! But now, the infrastructure is there, but everything is dumped in the ocean!
i hate to tell you but we live in a worse world in everyway than the one 1 century ago. Every thing has gone downhill. In the future they will call this age the liberal individualism gloom era.
They still do. They just go to the top schools and you won't see them come to America for better life like the Apus of the world, but for their masters.

Wonderful film.Must have been taken in the late 1930's as the college moved to this campus only in 1933.I lived close by. Further down the road towards the end was the Tram shed where all the Red trams plying Puraswalkam and adjoining areas were stationed. I think in the 1960s Trams were taken off the roads and the Tram shed became Periyar Thidal.That road was full of Bungalows where a lot of Anglo Indians lived.Vepery was a nice place to live in those days.
The need to pop out babies as if it's an important duty in earth is the cause, unless your child can be a guaranteed Einstein based on your your genes and intelligence, one shouldnt be having babies at all.
in 1967 my village with 20 houses and less than 120 people ,was a heaven. Today 1200 houses ,population nearly 7000.Drainage canal, village overtank, a clinic,a medical shop, a police station,20-30 unemployed, caste factions, 10 - 12 different colour party flags, 500 feet dug borewells,autoes, noise pollution smock..............
oh my.. I love British India and its school system.. sports and physical fitness given equal importance. school looks neat and clean, with trees and lot of play ground. I can relate to how African rural and under developed areas are being educated and built now.
And 3 million farmers died in famine engineered by the lovely british, africans were enslaved and sold in slave market by britain, dont say these things to an african, in india we tolerate, they will put u in jail for ur arrogance
Yeah. I noticed it too. Obesity only emerged after we started living modern life with all those junk foods and fast foods. People were healthy and had unadulterated food in those old days. Those were good olden days.

beautiful documentary ,print quality very good, British India and its school system.. sports and physical fitness given equal importance. school looks neat and clean, with trees and lot of play ground,from Chennai thanks bfi.
Amazing amazing! Really graceful. Each one knew their role too well. Sitting on the floor and eating in a more disciplined manner. Simplicity at its best. Teachers sitting along with students for lunch and students serving other students is a great initiative at that time. The dresses of girls and staff looked tidy and neat. I think the student Padmini must have been a school leader or some thing. I Makes me wonder and curious as to What Padmini might be doing now?
Ther are all our Christians . And hindus and muslims., how are studied in our prestigious st . Christopher college Madurai, how women is using her freedom in a proper way in those days finding true faith and god in st . Christopher college Madurai.
@aintnotroublebigenough That's the reason why India is still so backward. There needs to be healthy competition in a society for it to develop. Have some shame or just a little bit of humanity!
I was expecting to see more positive comments in this section but found out quite few negative comments about how this institution might have been a place of conversion.And my first thought was,here I am watching a video women getting college education during 20s tamil nadu (one of the most conservative state) and the people giving attention to a speculation over this almost miraculous condition.This literally shows how constant criticism of minority religions in this country has affected it's generally population.Instead feeling happy for those empowered women,these people cared more about a abstract concept.Did any one of these "conversion hunter" commenter thought about why these girls had to to church oriented college?? Because most Hindu/UC funded Colleges were men's only college during those times.This college-St Christopher's is actually a part of American College of madurai,which was one of the first college which permitted women into it. And it was the one of the first college to allow transgender people as it's students too.This college has given our country a Pulitzer prize,a Padma award and many such awards and recognition from its alumni.And yet , instead of concentrating on its efforts to provide quality education to Indians before and after independence ,all these naysayers concentrate on was it's name. Such people need to grow up and stop being so insecure.
So much negativity in the name of pseudo nationalism. Sad to see so many good things been buried for petty politics. To hide their incompetence, Politicians spreading this nationalism after 70 years of independence.
I want to get olden days life. After the void all will start this type of life only i think. All are very simple. In teacher training everyone must be like that only. Without teacher qualities many are becoming the teachers. Many teachers are talking in the schools also always about the ornaments and stares. Completing the syllabus is important now. There are no moral stories.in the schools. After seeing this teachers training school I am remembering my B. ed training days in Mysore.
I don't know why but I have a very strong desire to know how the daily lives of different people looked like in the past, in the stone age, in the nascence of agricultural revolution ,in mediaeval period..... Anyone suggesting any literature that describes the lives of 15-16-17-18th century is welcome.
There is no Christopher college in Madurai. It is situated in chennai.Christian training college for women teachers in Madras (Chennai). The school was founded in 1923 and still exists today, now known as St Christopher's College of Education. Chennai EVK sambath Road near to Thina Thanthi office Chennai
I don't think this is from 1920, and is most likely from a later date. Something about the clothes, and also the modern style of school bus, and also the rickshaws, seems to indicate that it might be from later, perhaps the late 1930s or 1940s. Regarding the clothing, the modern (Tagore-style) of sari was rare before the 1930s. The style wrapped between the legs was the norm. Also, younger girls and the boys are wearing Western style clothes. That too, was very rare or unknown in conservative towns such as Madurai. The BFI should check its dating of the reels.
Is this a video of the 1920s or 1940s!! Anyhow, the condition of the videography is in very good condition. 1920s is an era of transformation in India. On one side Gandhiji began his struggle for freedom through non- cooperation where millions of men and women took active participation and on the other side Indian life was entering into a modern phase. Women were going to college, taking role in public life and joining professions from films to medicine and judiciary. This video shows life was so simple. This was also the beginning of Indian socialism. - Abhishek Roy
Gandhi , Patel and Jinnah were all scamsters , white collar criminals, and fraudsters. why bring them here and spoil some beautiful moments. This is Madras, until late 1930s Gandhi was a non entity there. Women from Madras Presidency were getting educated even in 1850s. My great grand mother was a Doctor born in 1880s. My other one operated a Printing Press. Gandhi's swadeshi movement ruined the business and lively hood of South Indians and destroyed their property and economy, while he paved the way for his own folks to buy up everything. He did the same in SA, where he made all South Indians illegal tearing up their resident permits for the sake of Gujrathis. Gandhi, Jinnah, Patels's names and statues all over South India should be pulled and destroyed. I have met lots of these idiots who were crazies about gandhis, I asked them why do we have to step on filth and walk through garbage to walk into your homes ? All these mafos would often keep saying "Vellai karan kalathule". That is when I asked them, they had no answers. Congressmen destroyed south india with their wikedness and stupidity promising which they could never deliver till to date except to subjucate SI and collect tribute and ethnically cleanse them.
There seems to be no caste discrimination. This may be the reason why many of the oppressed class accepted the loving holy God who loves all human being equally without partiality. (May our creator bless the haters who are going to make abusing comments sooner or later)
Your holyman created difference between cast for the policy of divide and conquer,abusing is your gods idea who say people are sinner hindu culture says each one is divine soul.
No caste discrimination???? How did you even know? I bet 90% of the students were from developed castes. There might be some BC and MBC. I don't think there would be many Dalits. British actually encouraged everyone to learn. But the Brahminical Ideologists of this country abused and discriminated when they came to school. Very good example is Dr.Ambedkar.
@@indianacheetah Have a guts to accept the truth . In Indian culture , high caste , brahmins and Pundits only allowed to study in Gurushetras . That was the reason India lost many science . Thanks to invaders only all Indians were able to get education and the world got some Indian science same as India got world science.
@@indianacheetah Ok ..sorry . I was mentioned you by mistake. But the person first posted his comment also had same view saying " no caste descriminations " , at this British school .
LOL,No. These college exist even now and 80-90 percentage of students who study there are regular Hindus. These colleges were famous for their etiquette and bringing people different and caste and religion together,if anything this colleges were reason why castism based segregation was reduced amongst the young people in pre-independence india.
A visual feast to watch. My mother was born in 1920. Some are grand mother's age. I am 74.
You saw how the world looked 100 years ago. Great !
Thanks British pathe for your valuable video
They taught children of my mother's age initially.
How graceful the girls look, carry themselves so well.
Proper vocational courses, rest time, excursions, co curricular activities, so many types of fun-filled outdoor slides and swings...
Seems that education system was better in 1920 as compared to 2018
Why 2018?
However, there was a lot of societal pressures even during this time.
Can't imagine even today in other parts of India how women facing hurdles to have education.
Tamilnadu always ahead of other states
It is mentioned that infrastructure is poor! But I feel those sheds are best! No need of fan and AC! It’s natural!
Infrastructure is poor as in, has a chance of collapsing, and bad flow of air, bad foundation, no proper water pumping system, no proper toilets, etc. the sheds also become very unhygienic in wet conditions, bacteria growth, moss etc

Without teacher qualities many are becoming the teachers. Many teachers are talking in the schools also always about the ornaments and stares. Completing the syllabus is important now. There are no moral stories.in the schools. After seeing this teachers training school I am remembering my B. ed training days in Mysore.
Those who studied under westerners directly had better moral qualities, those are the days gone.
Girls have nice black hair ,, Tamizhnadu stands for their own culture.....
lol that game the kids are playing 8:25 xD haha
much fun!
That's heavy workouts
I thought the same, they need to recreate these.
I don't know why but I have a very strong desire to know how the daily lives of different people looked like in the past, in the stone age, in the nascence of agricultural revolution ,in mediaeval period.....
Anyone suggesting any literature that describes the lives of 15-16-17-18th century is welcome.
Looks like India was better when British ruled.

1920 s video s are running faster than today's.i think the video was 1940.
No bro see there are making Indian map with Pakistan includ
While watching this video only black and white suddenly advertisement came i don't know how to express myself.
All girls look gorgeous 😍
I don't think this is from 1920, and is most likely from a later date. Something about the clothes, and also the modern style of school bus, and also the rickshaws, seems to indicate that it might be from later, perhaps the late 1930s or 1940s. Regarding the clothing, the modern (Tagore-style) of sari was rare before the 1930s. The style wrapped between the legs was the norm. Also, younger girls and the boys are wearing Western style clothes. That too, was very rare or unknown in conservative towns such as Madurai. The BFI should check its dating of the reels.
Is this a video of the 1920s or 1940s!! Anyhow, the condition of the videography is in very good condition. 1920s is an era of transformation in India. On one side Gandhiji began his struggle for freedom through non- cooperation where millions of men and women took active participation and on the other side Indian life was entering into a modern phase. Women were going to college, taking role in public life and joining professions from films to medicine and judiciary. This video shows life was so simple. This was also the beginning of Indian socialism. - Abhishek Roy
Gandhi , Patel and Jinnah were all scamsters , white collar criminals, and fraudsters. why bring them here and spoil some beautiful moments. This is Madras, until late 1930s Gandhi was a non entity there. Women from Madras Presidency were getting educated even in 1850s. My great grand mother was a Doctor born in 1880s. My other one operated a Printing Press. Gandhi's swadeshi movement ruined the business and lively hood of South Indians and destroyed their property and economy, while he paved the way for his own folks to buy up everything. He did the same in SA, where he made all South Indians illegal tearing up their resident permits for the sake of Gujrathis. Gandhi, Jinnah, Patels's names and statues all over South India should be pulled and destroyed. I have met lots of these idiots who were crazies about gandhis, I asked them why do we have to step on filth and walk through garbage to walk into your homes ? All these mafos would often keep saying "Vellai karan kalathule". That is when I asked them, they had no answers.
Congressmen destroyed south india with their wikedness and stupidity promising which they could never deliver till to date except to subjucate SI and collect tribute and ethnically cleanse them.

There seems to be no caste discrimination. This may be the reason why many of the oppressed class accepted the loving holy God who loves all human being equally without partiality. (May our creator bless the haters who are going to make abusing comments sooner or later)
Your holyman created difference between cast for the policy of divide and conquer,abusing is your gods idea who say people are sinner hindu culture says each one is divine soul.
No caste discrimination???? How did you even know?
I bet 90% of the students were from developed castes. There might be some BC and MBC.
I don't think there would be many Dalits.
British actually encouraged everyone to learn. But the Brahminical Ideologists of this country abused and discriminated when they came to school. Very good example is Dr.Ambedkar.
@@indianacheetah Have a guts to accept the truth . In Indian culture , high caste , brahmins and Pundits only allowed to study in Gurushetras . That was the reason India lost many science . Thanks to invaders only all Indians were able to get education and the world got some Indian science same as India got world science.
@@Avastidas I don't get it. I said the same thing.
@@indianacheetah Ok ..sorry . I was mentioned you by mistake. But the person first posted his comment also had same view saying " no caste descriminations " , at this British school .
Much much better than venomous 2020
Love all..beyond knowledge religion and fortune...we live once in this world.

Is this a reference video on how christianization of educational institutions started by British in India?
LOL,No. These college exist even now and 80-90 percentage of students who study there are regular Hindus. These colleges were famous for their etiquette and bringing people different and caste and religion together,if anything this colleges were reason why castism based segregation was reduced amongst the young people in pre-independence india.
That swinging looks dangerous as hell, how do they do that casually?
100 years Back no one alive now I bet.
Yeah
Yes so sad painful.
True
@@ahmedmahsin5833 it is not sad bro it is life everything will come and go but what lasts are our legacy and our memories
So... In 1920 everyone have been to the college and schools only to study 😱!!
Only for study... 😀😁😀.... 👌👌👌
I should be born in tis golden years!! thousand time than now!

हे पद्मिनी मैं आपको सत्र 2020 में देख रहा हूँ आशा हैं कि कोई इस टिप्पणी को 2120 में भी पढ़ेगा।
Video looks great and informative but it seems this school was only for rich people, because it looks so sophisticated on that time.
Sound is missing..if sound has recorded then very good
That is silent movie era
No microphone era ? Right ?

All are Noticed one thing😎
All Ladies wear Flowers 😜 in their heads 😎
Amazing video
Thank God for their mission and services 🙏
Oh my god love to see
The school itself open in 1923. How come you shot the video 3 years back that is 1920?
Yeah. That threw me too. I'm guessing late twenties, judging by the model of school bus.
So many generations already gone. Nobody return.
But the values and ethics they learned still left in Christopher.
When the British left I think they blooy took the rest time with them!!!
