EDITORS COMMENTS
Not an apple for teacher but a big fat fish. Mr Tom Thomson, a civil engineer residing in Fritton, proves that education can come in many forms. As an expert angler and passionate about his hobby, he has taken it upon himself to share his knowledge with the younger generation. In this print captured on the 17th of August 1969, we see Mr Thomson surrounded by eager children at his home on the picturesque banks of the River Waveney in Suffolk. With patience and enthusiasm, he demonstrates the correct techniques to catch more and bigger fish. This snapshot from the 1960s beautifully encapsulates childhood innocence and curiosity as these boys immerse themselves in their newfound passion for angling under Mr Thomson's guidance. The school-like setting adds a touch of formality to this unconventional classroom where nature becomes their ultimate teacher. Mr Thomson's dedication to teaching goes beyond traditional subjects; he imparts life skills through hobbies and pastimes that foster discipline, patience, and appreciation for nature's wonders. These young anglers are not only learning how to cast lines or reel in catches but also gaining valuable lessons about perseverance and respect for aquatic ecosystems. As we delve into this nostalgic memory from Mirrorpix's collection of prints, let us celebrate educators like Mr Tom Thomson who go above and beyond textbooks to shape young minds while creating lasting memories.
