EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print from 1978, the pupils of Low Grange School in Billingham are captured dressed up in an array of colorful costumes as they proudly present a cheque of £260 to Mrs. Jane Kellie, the area organizer for Dr. Barnardo's. These young children have shown incredible dedication and compassion by raising such a substantial amount of money in just one week. The funds were collected through generous donations from family and friends after Mrs. Kellie gave a captivating talk on Barnardo's orphanages at their school. It is truly inspiring to witness these children actively engaging with charity work at such a tender age. This snapshot not only highlights the innocence and joy that comes with childhood but also showcases the importance of education and learning about social issues like poverty and orphanhood. The fancy dress costumes worn by the pupils add an element of fun and excitement to this charitable endeavor. As we look back on this image, it serves as a reminder that even small acts can make a significant impact on those less fortunate than us. The efforts made by these young students demonstrate the power of unity, empathy, and community spirit. This photograph is not just a nostalgic glimpse into the past; it represents timeless values that should continue to be instilled in future generations - kindness, generosity, and selflessness towards others in need.
