The image captures a remarkable moment as the Duke engages in conversation with a plumbing student named Peter Hawkins. With an air of genuine interest and warmth, Prince Philip leans forward attentively while Peter carefully holds a blow lamp away from the Royal visitor. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the essence of education and learning during that era. The setting exudes an atmosphere of knowledge and ambition, with students bustling around in their academic pursuits. The college stands as a symbol of progress and opportunity for young minds seeking practical skills for their future careers.
