Hi again everybody. This week we have had a good response from pupils
of other years at the school. Mandie King (1983), Angela Audsley (1988) have both
registered on the site and now have their own page. Martin Wilson, who you may have heard
me mention before has kindly sent me a copy of the Official Program for the Grand opening
of the school By Field Marshall Montgomery in 1959. His wife Susan attended the school
in that first year. This can be found by following the links to "Year Index" then scrolling down
to "Memories from former pupils", then clicking on the link to "School Opening Programme"
On the subject of our reunion, I have had very little respose from the last Nesletter
regarding letting me know who is coming and who is not. Please would you contact me
if you are one of the ones who has not yet replied. If you know the whereabouts of anyone
who has not replied, please could you give them a gentle reminder. If anyone wants to see
a list of those who have not yet replied I can supply it on request (Purely to help with
contacting them, of course). Mick Forshaw, ex of Norbreck school who is organising a
reunion for the class of '66 Grammer school boys & girls has managed to find a lad who left
Montgomery during the 1st year. David Hailwood was a very talented footballer and prolific
goalscorer and was a great loss to the team when he left. He ended up in Nottingham and
signed on for Nottingham Forest I believe. Injury prevented him from making a career out of
football unfortunately. More next week
For pupils from other years, Ann Cherry
has kindly sent me some photographs of their 30th Celebration reunion held in June 1997.
These can be found by following the link to "Year Index" then "Reunions held & pending"
More information next week
