Accompanying them in the frame are notable figures such as Mr R. E Presswood, Director of Education; Councillor L. Doyle; and Ald. R. G Robinson, Chairman of the Education Committee. Their presence adds an air of significance to this encounter between Prince Philip and young Brian Locke. The image exudes a sense of admiration and curiosity as both individuals engage in what seems to be an animated discussion about carpentry techniques or perhaps even future aspirations. It showcases Prince Philip's genuine interest in fostering connections with students who possess unique talents like Brian's. This photograph not only immortalizes a royal visit but also symbolizes the importance placed on education during that era.
