SIXTH FORM GET-TOGETHER AT MARGARET DALGLEISH'S HOME.
L to R: ? Balmer, Donald Grist, Doug Harrison, Ken Bettle, Girvan Dalgleish, Charles Owen, George Breed, ? Bingham, Joyce Tunnicliffe, Muriel Miles, Joan Comety, Katie Boyes, Joan Godfrey and Margaret Dalgleish.
I don't recall to whom I am indebted for a photograph of the sixth form (of approximately 1933), probably taken shortly after I had left, which would account for my not being included. This was taken at a get-together at Maggie's parents' house, which also accounts for her elder brother, Girvan, being in the background. I recall all of them well, except for Balmer and Bingham, the latter, I believe, being the son of the school secretary.
No school memoir would be complete without an eulogistic reference to the kitchen staff who ministered to the hungry bellies of growing youth, especially during that post-war austerity - those softies who took their own sandwiches can skip this bit. The un-remembered helpers – if still around – must share some of these lines about their boss, the indomitable Mrs Frost, who traveilled for 32 years from mid-WW1 until 1948.
