Another one of Peter Thompson’s photographs a little before the grammar school, can you recognise anyone in the photo, we realised it was the Duncan Place site of Loftus Junior School.
Norman Patton believes: ”I feel sure that I am half right with the girls on the front row: Sheila Potts, Kathleen Grant, Mary Shaw (Bielby) and Doreen Edis!” Can anybody else assist? Sheila Potts tells us: ”Norman is correct. I have this photograph and can identify most of the others. Back row from the left, with trumpet: Dorothy Harmer, Diane Bannister, Judith Dean, ??, Michael Dadd, Raymond Harrison, William Morrish, Pamela Middleton. I still know my line, although I forgot it on the night; “Your table your majesty.”

The Junior School not quite as I remember it; there was a dividing wall to the right of the photograph, maybe it’s still there? This wall with just a small adjoining gap, kept the boys from the girls. Yes we had separate yards to play in, not that it kept us separated for long! The yard that can be seen was the boys yard and school entrance and I don’t remember the small gardens being there do you?
