This photograph came from Mo Scanlan.  Names please????

the teacher on the right is Mrs Chisnall - Deborah Chisnall's mother. Deborah also had an older sister called Joanna. The teacher on the right was French - her name is on the tip of my tongue but escapes me at the moment. Thanks again to Mary Hamilton (Phillips)

 

I received this photo from Jonathan Elliot. He says of the photo - the date is November 1966, I am third from the right (teacher end), sitting on the bench with my arms crossed. I believe the teacher's name was Mrs. Staples.

Thanks to Suzanne Free (63-70) for the above photograph of her class.

Suzanne also sent me these photographs of a swimming gala in the late 60's!

 

Do you recognise yourself?  Let me know!

Tina Duff-Dobson (Herbert) has sent me some wonderful photos of Loreto Mombasa and writes; I got a friend to scan them for me so I'm afraid you'll get our Brownie Pack one taken in 1953 as well - there were a number of Convent girls in that one.   Of the other ones the big one was taken in 1958 at a Sports Day and the other two smaller ones taken in 1960 (without numbers) and 1961 (with numbers).   Hope someone can recognise someone they knew.

It goes back a long way I  would guess 1958 (?)  It is taken in the grounds of the Old School before the big move.  The pupil is my sister Pamela (Nicholls).
