EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photo print, we are transported back to the Tryweryn Valley in July 1963. Mrs. Martha Roberts, a dedicated teacher, sits at her desk surrounded by books and papers as she marks the work of her young pupils. This one-room school in Capel Celyn has been a place of learning since its opening in 1881. However, there is an underlying sense of sadness captured within this image. The looming threat of progress hangs heavy over the valley - it is soon to be flooded for the construction of a reservoir. The innocence and potential represented by these bright-eyed students contrast starkly with the impending loss they will face. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how communities can be forever altered by decisions made beyond their control. It captures not only the resilience and dedication of teachers like Mrs. Roberts but also highlights the importance and impact that education has on shaping young minds. Preserved through time by Western Mail and Echo's Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into both past joys and future sorrows experienced within Tryweryn Valley during the 1960s. It stands as a testament to history's ability to evoke emotions long after events have transpired, urging us never to forget those whose lives were irrevocably changed by progress's relentless march forward.
