Unfortunately, I don't know the language - but a juvenist is the step before postulant and novice on the way to becoming a Catholic Brother. The age for that was traditionally set at thirteen, so I would wager a guess looking at the boys in the photograph that juvenistakkal is referring to them.

Thanks! I had a feeling it might be a word particular to Catholic orders, and thus relatively obscure.

Native speaker here. It means "With the Celldömölk juvenists. May 1936".

(I had absolutely no idea what a juvenist was, though, but atdelphi seems to be correct.)

A celldömölki juvenistákkal. 1936. máj.

(plural) juvenisták -> (instrumental-comitative) juvenistákkal

Translation: With celldömölk’s juvenists. 1936. May.
