EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the heart of World War Two. The image captures a significant moment in history as Park Modern School, Barking, evacuated to Swindon last September, finds respite at Brean Sands in Somerset for a two-week holiday. Both masters and boys stand united in their quest for relaxation amidst the chaos of war. Lined up before us are these brave young souls eagerly awaiting their rations. Their faces reflect a mixture of excitement and anticipation as they prepare to indulge in much-needed sustenance during their well-deserved break from studies and wartime hardships. It is through images like these that we gain insight into the resilience and determination displayed by children during such trying times. The year is 1940; the world is engulfed in conflict. Yet here, on this sandy shore, innocence prevails momentarily as these boys enjoy a brief escape from reality. Cox's lens has captured not just an ordinary snapshot but rather a testament to the strength of human spirit even amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this poignant scene frozen in time, let us remember those who fought valiantly during World War Two – both on the battlefield and within their own hearts – reminding us that even amid darkness, there is always room for hope and joy.
