A larger group of Catering staff and our Dinner ladies. Back row: Heather Kilvington, Carole Yeoman, Brenda Rutland.
Our team is: Shirley Kentfield, Cynthia White, Carole Yeoman, ??, Christine Garner. The group of as yet an unknown year and we need help with some names?
Busy days in the dinner hall, but time for an excellent image by Tempest (School Photographers)!
Assembled in 1980? the ladies are:
Helen Cook tell us: “I can only recognise; on floor in foreground John Trevillion; woodwork bench on right Dennis Covell; centre table Brian Espiner; back table Roger Hoare; easel Rita Shields; shop Caroline Mortimer; between easel and shop Helen Fowle.” Originally we got the date incorrect on this image; but Ray Brown told us: “I can’t assist with any names, but the School didn’t open until mid 1954 – just one month after my sixth birthday I believe…”
Taken by W Eglon Shaw (who had a studio at 10 North Road), this view which had to be taken in two parts to accommodate all the pupils; shows Miss Goldsborough to the left. The pupils all ready dressed to depart home after the Christmas party in 1953, armed with their gifts. Possibly the last Christmas party at Zetland Infant School for some of these pupils, moving on in the May 1954 to Harry Dack Infant or to the Junior School in Duncan Place. Mike Robinson tells us: “I have no recollection of this picture being taken; but it looks like me holding my cup behind the girl sat with her legs stretched out on the front row. That is on picture 1. I think I see Ian Goodwill….Ray Bink’s…Marion Smith and Sheila Dorgan and others.” We have been given several names, but leave it to you to tell us if you can find yourself or others.
The second half of the gathered pupils, all wrapped and ready to leave the party. Note the guard for the large stove on the right, today a major problem! But then an invaluable way of drying wet clothes or more essentially, keeping warm. How they used to glow with heat! As said on the previous image, we have several names, but we leave you to possibly find yourself in these images and would love to have your memories of the event.
In the staff room in May 1956, we have the staff assembled. We have other names; Steven Partlett tells us: “The lady on the right front looks to me to be Mrs Nancy McGingle”. And Derek Millere tells us: “The lady seated in the middle is Miss Winter . She taught pupils in “the top class” before they moved up to Junior school in Duncan Place”. But can you fill in the gaps?
