I started there in 1961. I was in 1alpha and my first form teacher was Mrs Livesey, needlework teacher. I remember Jack Green, called everyone 'blossom', Mr Day, maths, Mrs Richards, deputy head, Mrs Thornton, Mr Boothe with his size ten slipper he kept on his desk. One time in the fourth year, a few of us were fed up of standing outside at lunch time, so my friend, Chris Riley [sadly passed away], decided to climb through the science room window and open the door to let us in. We then crept under the stage until it was time for the next lesson. How we weren't caught I have no idea. Some names, Helen Threlfall, Eileen Blezzard, Trish O'Connor, Marge Towneley, Geraldine Heys, Barbara Blank, Trevor Coulthurst, Derek Rimmington, Billy Moore, Pauline Taylor. Lots more I could go on forever. Happpy days.
