Hello again everybody.
Some very sad news this week I'm afraid. I'm sure some of the local people will have seen the news in the Gazette of the death of the old Head of the Art department, Mr Jack Council. I was fortunate to come under his tuition in the late '60's although even he couldn't get a more than a matchstick man out of my inept fingers! There isn't much I can say about the man except that he could be a cantankerous old sod at times but what a character! I think we all loved him all the same. I would like to reproduce the blackpool Evening Gazette article for those ex-pupils who live outside our area, and with their kind pemission, I have done so below. Anyone wishing to puchase a copy of the newspaper can do so by telephoning them on 01253 400888.
