EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print captured by John Randle, we are transported back to the 1990s when former politician Paddy Ashdown paid a visit to Light Hall School in Shirley. The image showcases Mr. Ashdown engaging with two bright young students, Sarah Smith and Gareth Lyons, inside the school library on a chilly winter day, precisely on the 2nd of February in 1993. Dressed smartly in their traditional school blazers and uniforms, Sarah and Gareth exude an air of innocence and curiosity as they eagerly interact with the esteemed guest. Surrounded by shelves filled with books that hold endless knowledge and imagination, it is evident that education plays a vital role within these walls. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of childhood exploration through reading. As Mr. Ashdown attentively listens to his young companions' thoughts or perhaps shares tales from his own experiences, one can't help but appreciate the power of literature in shaping young minds. This snapshot not only serves as a reminder of a special moment shared between influential figures like Paddy Ashdown and future leaders like Sarah Smith and Gareth Lyons but also symbolizes the importance placed on education during this era. It stands as a testament to how visits from prominent individuals can inspire children's aspirations while fostering an environment where learning thrives.
