EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from the 1990s, we see teacher Ron Pickles bravely soaking up sponsorship as he is bombarded with sponges thrown by his mischievous pupils. Standing in front of him are Lucy Heyhoe, Sian Badham, and Rosanan James, each armed with a sponge ready to make a splash. The image captures the joyous atmosphere of Rastrick High School's Sponsor Week, where Mr. Pickles and his courageous colleagues Ronnie Whale and Peter Radley willingly endured the deluge for a good cause. The aim of this spirited event was twofold: to raise £3,000 for the school's minibus running costs and also donate money to several local charities. As laughter fills the air and water flies through the frame, it is evident that everyone involved is having an absolute blast while contributing towards these noble goals. This heartwarming snapshot showcases children actively participating in fundraising activities while enjoying themselves immensely. It serves as a reminder of how communities can come together to support their schools and give back to those in need. Soaking sponges may have drenched Teacher Ron Pickles on that memorable day in October 1991, but it was all worth it for the greater good.
