I think your sister would have gone to Victoria Junior School. It part of the Victoria army barracks, and not far from Macdonnell Road: https://gwulo.com/victoria-junior-school#17/22.27652/114.15959/Map_by_ES... and https://gwulo.com/node/5780/photos

Newspaper reports from the 1950s cover the Victoria Junior School's sports day at "Sookunpoo", the sports ground in your photo above.

Thank you very much. I have been searching to see if I could find any reference to the name of the school in my Mum's folder but without success. Now that you have mentioned that name it does ring a bell and I am sure you are right. Another question solved through this wonderful website. Thanks so much.
