Fulbrook School

I started at Fullbrook 1958, very nearly aged 12 years. I was promoted to class 2g the following year, but never attained expectations. Other teachers were:- George Blanshard(moustache), woodwork and boatbuilding. P.E. was Jim Knight, Miss Seymour and a man taller than Jim Knight with thick black hair(a welshman I believe). Miss Audrey Purviss- domestic science? used to ride a bike with a large woven wicker basket behind the saddle. Mr Townsley and Mr Noyce, science. Mr Wilson, english. Mr Thomas and Mr Reid taught Spanish, Harry Wheeler taught the commercial students. I had no mention on my leaving card of 1963 of Mrs Olly Edwards (english teacher) but there was the name O. Lea. signed and I think I have memory that Miss Edwards married ? best wishes David Richards

Me too and remember all these teachers I think Welshman you remember was Mr Evans known as toga History I believe. Mr Bean was head master and Mary Kersley Head girl. My only claim to fame was sport especially running. So nice to read these memories
