This image caused a lot of debate regarding dating; we now know the staff to be: Back row: Mrs S. Redding, Mrs. S. Doe, Mr I. Scott, Mrs H Ward, Miss J. Longster, Mrs. S. Sansom. Front row: Miss V. Ogden, Mrs. K. Sanderson, Mrs J. Dadd, Mr. D. Parks, Mrs. G. Thomas, Mrs. S. Metcalfe , Mrs. M. Toulson. Alexandra tells us: ”I was at Loftus Junior School between 1998 and 2003, all these teachers taught me. I think it is probably 2000, as I think Miss Ogden left in 2000.” We now believe the image was taken in 1997/8; as James McGill tells us: ”I left Loftus Juniors in September 2000 and my mum (Mrs McGill) was a teacher there for my last two years there and she’s not in the photograph. I think this is possibly 1997/8 school year. Mrs Ward (then Miss Knight) started a year before my mum came to the school. It was also Mr Parks first year as head teacher.” Image and names courtesy of Marian Toulson and thanks also to J. Kames, David McGill and Alexandra for assistance in the specific date of the image.

Mrs Leybourne with some of her class I presume, but what are they doing? Is it a sports day? Some of the named pupils are:- Keith Lindsey, Gary Yarker, Shaun Grey, Kevin Patton and on right Mike Allison. Can anybody help with other names? Image courtesy of Marian Toulson.
Here are the pupils on the way to Scotland or more accurately they are already there; with the Forth Bridge behind them. If you were one of these pupils or can name any of them then please do so, thank you. Image courtesy of Marian Toulson.
Mr McKenna at the top of Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh, during one of the regular Scotland trips; were you one of those up there with him? If so can you tell us the date?  A pair of Class 20s, led by 20070, cross the new bridge at Carlin How with a train of loaded Potash Hoppers. Russ Pigott advised: “Both locomotives are equipped with multiple working connections, the second man being the guard. Both locomotives in ”Small Arrow” livery; it looks like the Thornaby Kingfisher on the side.” Image courtesy of Raymond Brown and thanks to Russ Pigott for the update.  Another evening, again we know it was taken in the old St Joseph’s School, possibly after a school show or similar. But again can anybody help.
