  1. It was lovely seeing all these photos. Mrs Shepherd taught my daughter as did Mrs Marlow, Mrs Bowbanks and Mrs Buckle. I remember Anne Bellerby too. In fact I remember them all in the photo with Mrs Marlow. I have very fond memories of my daughters first school. Everyone was lovely.

  2. In the first picture, the teacher back row third from left could be Mrs Bainbridge? (Trawling the depths of my memory now!)

      • I recognise Mrs Thompson and Mrs Shepard, but don’t know any of the others.
        But I certainly know Ian Watling, and I might even know Terry Brown, hello to you both.

      • Hello Jonathan! It’s interesting seeing all these old photos of Stockton…..seems to have changed such a lot, judging by what I’ve seen on the few occasions I get back there now! There are a couple of teachers in these photos that I don’t recognise (or more likely don’t remember, it was a while ago……!), but I can remember those classrooms vividly!
