Is that Sister Mary Peter who was at St.John's in Brick Kiln Lane?
I believe she died doing missionary work in Africa , she was a lovely lady

Hi Margaret, that's me next to you (4th from the right). I started to research the history of The Hollies/Notre Dame Prep School a few years back but ran out of steam.... At the time, Sister Mary Peter was reported to be alive and well, in a convent for retired nuns in Liverpool. I was invited to stay so that I could meet up with Sister MP and to look through their archives. I didn't take up the offer.....too scary..... I still have very fond memories and one or two less fond memories, from my days at The Hollies.

I am the second boy from the left on the back row between Frank Hardy and Peter Conroy. I remember Amanda Rylance having a bandage around her head for a while.
