Ah, right. For some reason (probably due to failing memory) I always thought of her as 'Miss'. As a 'newbie' my classmates were David Greenhalgh, Andrew Ormerod, Andrew Nuttall, Brian Cookson, Peter Whittaker, Christine Court, Ann-Marie Stanley, Gillian Torevell - to name but a few.
I remember vividly Mrs Backhouse playing the piano at assembly. In particular, she could play elements of Tchaikovsky's concerto no 1 - which appealed to me greatly. I never knew where she lived (we used to live at that time in Cedar St) nor that she had lived to such a good age. It;s nice to know that my memories of her kindness are shared by others.
