EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print captured in April 1963, we witness the joy and innocence of 21 Tibetan refugee children who have found solace and a new home at the Pestalozzi village in Seddlescombe, Sussex. Dressed proudly in their national costumes, these resilient youngsters embarked on an unforgettable adventure to "See the Sea" at nearby St. Leonards. With beaming smiles radiating pure happiness, these carefree children embraced the simple pleasures that childhood offers. Armed with buckets and spades, they eagerly built sandcastles along the shorelines while waves crashed gently against their creations. Their laughter echoed through the salty air as they collected colorful seashells - treasures from nature's vast playground. This poignant image serves as a reminder of both resilience and hope amidst adversity. These young souls had fled their homeland seeking refuge but now stood united by friendship and shared experiences. The Pestalozzi village provided them with not only shelter but also a nurturing environment where they could heal from past traumas. Beyond borders and cultural differences, these children proved that joy knows no boundaries. They reveled in moments of sheer delight without any inhibitions or worries about their uncertain futures. This snapshot encapsulates a fleeting moment of carefree bliss for these remarkable individuals who were given an opportunity to reclaim their childhoods despite being far away from home. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it reminds us of our collective responsibility to provide sanctuary for those displaced by conflict or persecution – offering
