Prefects Photo : 1951/52

Hi Jim,
 
John Forder and I when we met recently thought we recognized the following in this photo (from left):
 
Back row: John Sullivan, D? Gilson, Peter Bray, ? Pontin (possibly, Michael Whatmore, Peter Allcock, B? Hilton,(don' t know), Percy Candy, John Forder, Richard Wheatley, Peter Smith.
 
Front row: ? Hewlett, Alan Sanders, 'Barrel' May, Fred Johnson (Head Prefect), [Doc], Don Peckham, Ian Howarth, B? Henley?, Calvin Gaiger.
 
Does anybody know the others; indeed, have John and I correctly identified others than ourselves?   Or is all blurred by the mists of 50 years of time?
 
Regards
 
Peter Smith

moderation of messages

Hi,
This morning, 12th November, there was an item on the Today programme where the messages posted on a similar site, 'FriendsReunited', were discussed. Complaints were made that some messages posted on that site were abusive to school staff. As that Website is so big it is unmoderated by the managers.
Just to  let you know that I moderate this site. So far there has been no problem and I have not come near deleting any messages but I am sure you would want me to if there was anything libellous, or even unkind, posted.
best regards,
jim wishart, list manager,

School Photo 1962

I have managed to scan in and split the 62 school photo into 3 parts (I actually had to colour copy it in three parts and then scan them in and reduce the file size to post them - hence the less than wonderful quality!!). If you want a copy of any part, email me and I can send a better quality image that you can enlarge and study!! In the mean time .....
a) were you there and if so where?
b) name the masters L-R
c) name any friends (or enemies!) and their positions
Happy hunting, Mike Minty
