A photograph of schoolchildren drinking milk, taken by Woodbine for the Daily Herald newspaper on 1 October 1934.

As part of a campaign to get children to drink more milk, the Agriculture Minister, Major Elliot, visited Addison Gardens School where pupils could drink milk for a halfpenny a day. In 1946, the School Milk Act introduced free milk for all pupils under eighteen.
