EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Torquay Herald Express, we are transported back to the 9th of March, 1978. The image showcases Prince Philip, also known as the Duke of Edinburgh and President of the World Wildlife Fund, during a visit to Paignton Zoo in Devon. Standing alongside him are enthusiastic pupils from Chudleigh Knighton School who were fortunate enough to be working on an educational project. The scene exudes warmth and curiosity as children eagerly engage with their royal guest. Their faces radiate excitement and awe at being in the presence of such esteemed company. This snapshot encapsulates a moment where education meets royalty, bridging worlds that may seem distant but share a common goal: nurturing young minds. Prince Philip's dedication to wildlife conservation is evident through his role as President of the World Wildlife Fund. His visit to Paignton Zoo not only highlights his commitment but also serves as an inspiration for these young students embarking on their own journey towards environmental stewardship. This photograph immortalizes an era when school trips held great significance in shaping young hearts and minds. It reminds us that even those born into privilege can use their position for positive change and inspire future generations along the way.
