Does anyone know the teachers' name in this photo? I am looking for pictures of my cousins, Constance & Mary Cleaton. They were school teachers at Beech Hill Primary in the 1930's. I am also trying to find a photo of the old school.

I remember both Miss Constance & Miss Mary. Both dark haired
tall, slim and ladylike...never was afraid of them. I remember Miss Roberts the head mistress too, she remembered me when she was quite elderly, which amazed me.

I remember both Miss Mary and Miss Constance Cleaton when I was in the infants section in around 1955. They were both what I thought as elderly at the time. I think it was a Miss Simm who was headmistress.

I remember them with fondness such lovely ladies. I started infants in 1961 and they were there then
