EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1967, three schoolchildren from Walton-on-the-Naze Secondary School in Essex, England, are engrossed in an outdoor educational project on the famous Red Crag cliff at The Naze. The boys and girls, dressed in their school uniforms, are taking direction from a young schoolboy, who wears a crisp shirt and tie, as he skillfully operates the camera for a 16mm film project. The girls, wearing blouses and skirts, seem focused and excited about their progressive learning experience. Red Crag, a famous location in Walton-on-the-Naze, is known for its stunning views of the North Sea and the picturesque cliffs. The children's project likely involved documenting the natural beauty of the area and capturing the essence of the 1960s educational ethos, which emphasized experiential learning and outdoor activities. The photograph is a charming reminder of the 1960s, a decade marked by social and cultural change, and the progressive approach to education that prioritized hands-on experiences and creative expression. The children's enthusiasm and eagerness to learn from their peers and their environment reflects the spirit of the era and the importance of media and film in documenting history. This photograph, from the Pete Frost Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the power of education and the joy of learning, captured in a moment in time on the Red Crag cliff at Walton-on-the-Naze, Essex.
