Andrew Day who sent the Archive has memories this time: “I started at Guisborough Grammar School in January 1966 and was plonked in form 1 Alpha. It was a bit of a baptism of fire for our family. We moved from Southend on Sea to Guisborough in that dreadful winter of 1966. I started at Guisborough Grammar School and my sister one year my senior went to the Laurence Jackson School. We were ribbed mercilessly at first at school due largely I believe because of our southern accents. Still, as time moved on we grew to be accepted and our times in North Yorkshire became a very rich and rewarding time for us all, especially our mother who to the day she died, wanted to move back north.”

A small group this time, Alan Moss suggests: “All these photographs from the top to this one must have been taken in either 1972 or 1973. Paul Mcgrath, Peter Abrahams, Steve Hunt, Steve Rogers, me and a few of the girls, were the first intake of kids from the Laurence Jackson School to the newly created Prior Pursglove College in 1972.” Garth Dee commented: “I knew Mark Wheeler in 1978 in Sierra Leone. That would have been maybe six or seven years after this photograph. Would like to get back in touch with him.” Paul McGrath added: “Alan is right, I am second from right in back row when I had plenty of hair.”
Back row: David Drinkhall, Richard Watson, Paul McGrath, Mark Wheeler.
Front row: Malcolm Watson, Susan Langridge, Alec Jenkins (Tutor), Jacqueline Stockton, Peter Abrahams.

Quade (Reimitz) adds: “I spent the 1986-87 school year as a German language assistant at PPC and was very fortunate to meet and appreciate Granville B. Lynch (mentor and host) and Vaughan Dexter (swing band leader), to whom I owe much to this day, as they both inspired me deeply.”
