i attended the School in the mid - late fifties. Teachers - Miss Wyld, Mr Harrison [ BRILLIANT sports teacher ], Mrs Godfrey who was quite strict but only prepared you for, - Miss Milner who was the strictest teacher EVER. Mind you she had to be, - there were 40 + kids in the class. Never once, was there dis-order or any mis-behavior. i remember learning times-tables parrot fashion, repeating them time and time and time and time again. i remember learning that chocolate came from Africa [ what a strange thing to remember ]. i remember the outside toilets on a literally freezing January day. Lots of other vivid memories too. 'am still in touch with Robert McGann, known as 'Ganny' at P.J.S. Also remember quite a few names as we were all together for about 6 years. Pam Lee, Pam Buxton, Angela Ward, Angela Wade, Irene Handley, Diane Bailey,Anne Whitehead, Christine Spurr, Rosemary Brown, Susan Butler, Christine Woods, Dorothy Oxenford, Sandra Harrison, John Hurd, David Philbin, Andrew Davis, David Best, Jim Tubb, Geoff Cooper, Trevor Jones, Anthony ?, John Ludlow, Chris Marwood, Roy Allen, Darren James.
Blimey !! i can't even remember what day it is now, so where did all those names come from ? Oh just remembered Mr Wright the chain smoking Headmaster.
Remember playing football on 'Bachus' with Richard and Roger Poole, Keith Green etc. YES, very happy days, - where have all the years gone.
