Girls and boys secondary, does anyone know the name of the boy on the right of photo? Is this David Farlow?
I would still like to know anyone who knows the boy on the right of the photo
Joan Whittingham’s comment about her correct Christian name/forename, not Ann, refers to another Richard Hind folk dance team photo – item reference t9612.
Could you name the boys in the photo Joan?
I believe that the boy in the centre at the back is Keith Prest twin brother of Graham Prest. The twins went to Newtown school together and Graham went on to Grangefield
Did you start RHS in September 1951, Joan? If so, I think we were in the same class. I was Whittaker in those days.
The name of the girl standing next to Brian Sugden is Joan Whittingham not Ann. Those events were very enjoyable and great fun.I was also part of the archway at Ken Sawyer’s wedding.
The girls on the photo are S Farndale, A Pugh, J Gibson and A Fawcett. I cannot find the boys names!
