A
note from Gordon Bannister (1944-1952) and some names from Peter Happé
plus Oct11 updates from Tim Cheyne.
I think the photo shows Mr Jordan with School and House prefects of that
time rather than a particular form.
A few names have come to mind plus a few guesses!
Top row: 1 Colin Gredley, 2 Ronald Shaw, 3 Brian Lang, 4 Roy Clark, 5 Peter Harper, 6 Michael 'sticky' Glew, 7 Tim Cheyne, 8 Ian Porteous 9 Alec Wardrop, 10 Bryan Nicholson, 11 Gordon Bannister, 12 Brian Chaplin
Middle row 1 Ron Beer 2 ? Hunt, 3 Tony Tidswell, 4 Don Saunders, 5 Geoffrey Harrington, 6 ? Riley, 7 John Iffland [ Mar 2015 - See note below ], 8 Colin Peplow
Front
row 1 Maurice Holt, 2 Sidney Bull, 3 Dennis Mabey, 4 John Taylor, 5 Mr
F. Jordan, 6 Derek Gay, 7 Geoffrey Bullcock, 8 ?? 9 Andrew Salisbury
The boys in this photograph were from Arts and Science Sixth
The House Captains are on the front row
More Tim Cheyne notes:
At that time John Taylor was School Captain (Head Boy) and I am reasonably
sure that Maurice Holt was his deputy.
I am puzzled by three absences from the photograph:
Roderic Cook who surprised and delighted us with his 'Lord Chancellor'
in Iolanthe and later went on to a career on stage and screen.
Ian Jarvis, who joined the RAF and sadly was later killed in an accident.
Paul Mier with an incredible enquiring mind who I would think went into
science of some sort.
I thought that they were still at the school at that time but perhaps
not.
Kind regards.
Tim (1943-50)
