The girls at the front of the image all wear identical school uniforms. The remainder of the people in the image are adults, and a re probably staff of the institution. Peruvian male teachers stand on the back row. The middle, seated row is made up of one Peruvian gentleman and four European missionaries.. Among the missionaries are Reverend Edward Ball (far right) and Lucy Kisky (centre). This slide comes from a collection created by the Peruvian Inland Mission, an evangelical mission started in 1930 by Miss Annie G Soper in northeast Peru, which was administered by the evangelical interdenominational mission, Regions Beyond Missionary Union from 1948.
