EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable achievement by a group of Cleveland schoolchildren back in the 1980s. With determination and compassion, these young students from Brunner Comprehensive School in Billingham rallied together to raise an impressive £500 for the Cleveland Spastics Society. Their incredible feat involved conquering the grueling Lyke Wake Walk, a challenging 42-mile hike across the picturesque North York Moors. Undeterred by blisters and exhaustion, these thirty-one pupils accepted their classics teacher's challenge with unwavering enthusiasm. The image showcases their triumphant moment as they proudly present a cheque to represent their hard-earned fundraising efforts. It is evident that this experience not only taught them about resilience and perseverance but also instilled within them a sense of empathy towards those less fortunate. This heartwarming snapshot serves as a testament to the power of education beyond textbooks. It highlights how schools can nurture qualities such as teamwork, compassion, and social responsibility among their students. Decades later, this photograph continues to inspire us all with its timeless message: that even at such tender ages, children possess immense potential to make positive change in society. The memory of these determined youngsters reminds us that every small act of kindness can create ripples of impact far beyond our imagination.
