SCHOOLDAYS

1963Earlier this week on this blog I was pleased to post pictures of stalls at Marine Lake Fun Fair sent by Carol Wells (was Humphreys). Carol was in Mrs. Owen’s class at Christ Church Primary School, Vaughan Street, and has sent the picture (TOP) which shows an assembly in 1960.

Of this, Carol says, “I am sending you a photo taken in the assembly hall. This was actually two classrooms which had a folding partition. When we had an assembly the partition was opened up and pupils from other classes had to stand around or sit on desktops!”

“The other photo shows my class at Rhyl Grammar School in 1963. I'm second left on the front row; my best friend Val Bond is sitting next to me (1st left). We've got back in touch after many years – the Internet is very useful for reuniting people.”

In the second row (left to right): Don’t know, Terry Hands, Ian Bennion and Pat Edmunds.
Third row: Richard Williams, Michael Bond, Vanessa White and Susan Mason.
In the background: Brian Lloyd, Roger Peters, Michael Perry and Alison Smith.
