EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 18th of September 1973 at Whitley Abbey Comprehensive School. A group of enthusiastic pupils, all dressed in their smart school uniforms, gather around Mr Byran Stephenson as he takes the hot seat. The reason for their amusement becomes clear as our eyes are drawn to a young bactrian camel standing beside them. These curious students were studying birds and animals during a memorable school field trip. As they watch with wide-eyed wonder, Mr Stephenson demonstrates that this seemingly wild creature is actually quite tame. The interaction between man and beast serves as an educational moment, showcasing the incredible diversity found in nature. The photograph captures a snapshot of education in the 1970s, where hands-on experiences were valued as crucial learning opportunities. It highlights the importance of zoos and similar institutions in providing immersive encounters with wildlife for young minds eager to explore the natural world. This medium-sized group of pupils radiates excitement and curiosity, reminding us of our own youthful fascination with creatures great and small. Through this image, we are reminded that education extends beyond textbooks and classrooms; it thrives when students can witness firsthand the wonders that exist beyond their everyday lives. Staff at Memory Lane Prints have expertly preserved this nostalgic moment from history - a testament to both the enduring power of education and humanity's eternal connection with nature's magnificent creations.
