EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print captured by Colin Robertson, we are transported back to the 1980s at Dene School in Thornaby. A group of dedicated cleaners, armed with their trusty mops and brooms, embark on a unique fundraising adventure known as the "March of the Mops". Their mission? To raise money for the school choir Hungary fund. Clad in charming costumes and wearing proud smiles, these selfless individuals march alongside school caretaker Ken Brown. Together, they form an unstoppable force determined to make a difference within their beloved educational institution. The image not only showcases the camaraderie among these hardworking cleaners but also highlights their commitment to supporting extracurricular activities such as music education. The buckets and rollers they carry serve as symbols of their dedication to cleanliness and orderliness within the school's walls. This heartwarming snapshot encapsulates a time when communities rallied together for charitable causes without any commercial motives. It reminds us of the power that lies within unity and how even seemingly small acts can have a profound impact on those around us. Colin Robertson's photograph is more than just an archival piece; it is a testament to the spirit of giving that transcends generations. It serves as an inspiration for future fundraisers and stands as a reminder that every contribution counts towards creating brighter opportunities for our youth.
