Joint School trip undertaken 7th to 11th June 1965 by Hindley Green County Primary School and Argyle Street County Primary School. Teachers: Mr Davenport and Mr Collier (Argyle Street) and Miss Baxendale and Miss Beckett (Hindley Green). This original photo was taken in Trafalgar Square and I (Frank Prescott) am sitting cross legged second from the right next to Stephen Cardiff on the end.

I’m in the third row, third girl from the right. It was a great trip. I remember the hilarity at seeing Miss Beckett in her dressing gown and curlers!
