Hunter Family Diary 1928

This blog contains the 1928 Diary of my mother, Iris Hunter and her sister Nora Hunter. At the time of it's writing, they were attending Bournemouth High School, a boarding school for girls in Bournemouth, England. It was their final year after which they would be returning to their home in Shanghai, China. Iris turned 17 in Feb of that year and her sister would be 16 in July. I've transcribed it as written along with any photos that were pasted into the diary. I've also added in a few photos

March 18

18 Sunday (78-288)
4th in Lent

We went to early church this morning. After breakfast we wrote our letters. Then we went to church again. Iris, Margaret Clifford and Nora went for an exploring walk along Alum Chine and the Branksome Woods. It was great fun. After tea we played the grammie for a while and then we did prep. This time a fortnight we will be with daddy! Three cheers for daddy! What thrills!
We did prep again after supper. We hope to have a letter from daddy tomorrow.
Daddy has left Harbin now and is on his way to Chita.
