Hi Philip, I'm not sure but I think the blonde lad, first on left back row is my ex-husband Vincent Wadsworth.

yes it is vincent wadsorth.

The girls on the second step up on the right are Margaret Crinnigan, myself, and Maureen Johnson. I think the girl holding the badge is Joan Lavin and on the right of her Janet McLoughlin,Noreen Bohannan and Lorraine Higham.

bottom row on the l/h/s. kathleen flynn and marie whittle. i think.

Hi Anne, It isn't Margaret Crinnigan - the girl on the left of you Anne is Pat Price, and yes you are right it is Joan Lavin holding the badge. There are few more faces on there I remember {:o)

Hi Maureen. You are right now that I look at it. I remember the photo being taken but I cannot remember for what reason.

Hi myself two sisters and a brother went to this school Barbara, Joan, Joyce and Jimmy Lyon I left in 71 and they left in 65 68 and 69 anyone who knew us it would be lovely to reminisce we all went to the old St Oswalds on Liverpool Rd too any photos would be lovely we have none!

On the back row right in the centre is a tall guy possibly the teacher on his left as we look at it I am fairly sure is Brian Thornton. We were best friends growing up he lived at 4th street Bryn Gates until he went to university to become a PE teacher. He came to my wedding in 1974 but I havnt seen him since I would love to know where he is now. Dose anyone know anything

The school officially on the 2nd August 1961. When did it change its name from Blessed to Saint?
