A few familiar faces on here,me included, back row 4th right.As was the case in those days knew all the boys avoided the girls. An age of innocence long gone

Wow just been reckoning up,that's 62years ago! Where have all the years gone?

The girl just behind the girl on front row with her hand on the floor looks a bit like Linda Gallagher.

Back row second from the right. Not sure about the date. Looks like the old school near the old church. Mrs Hayes, far left would not have been in a junior school photo. I stand tu be corrected

The two lads on the right of the back row look like twin brothers and are even dressed the same, anyone know if they are?

They're not.

Is the teacher on the right Mr Brendan Murphy brother of Kevin Murphy who was headmaster at St John Fisher?

This is the old school next to the church in Cuthbert Street.
Didn't Brendan Murphy go on to be headmaster at the new junior school in Thorburn Road?
I find this picture very confusing ..... if it is 1960 then I was already at the new junior school so why is Brendan Murphy in this photo?

I think that this photo is before 1960 iwas in the new school by then .as I said before it is 62years ago and my memory is a bit shaky.

Wrong Tuddy. I did not have a brother.
