I remember some of the people on the photo I was in the same class Reg Baldwin (arms folded front left) and Walter Green(on right 3rd up black jacket on)
Tony Parr is at the back, far right !!
1956 seems so far away yet i can remember some faces and names
I remember a lot of these lads but names are forgotten. Peter Airey sounded familiar. Did he run a bread round 1959/1960. He introduced me to his boss but declined the job. Would like to hear from anyone in this photo.
a few names try to spot them GEOFF BENDELOW TERRY WOOD DEREK SMITH SID MURRAY WALTER JONES JOHN OAKES TERRY MELLING G CARTWRIGHT not all in same class

I attended Gidlow Girls’ Secondary Modern School from approximately 1959-1963 but I cannot fine anything at all about the girls school only boys? Can anyone help as I don’t know where to look. I was in class 1a - class 4a. My last form mistress for the last 2 years was Miss Dickson and Head Mistress was Mrs Lowe. I was headed choir too. Belovely if anyone could help. Thank you
My dad was David Connor, do any of you remember him and do you think he could be at the front of this pic he’d have been 13 yrs old here
