Hello, I am Sandra Dover in Rotherham. I went to Mandale infants school in Thornaby. Did you know Valerie Beech and Linda Thubron. I was in the choir with them at Robert Atkinson. Regards Sandra Dover
Hi Stuart. Thank you for letting me know. Am sorry to hear that. A bit more of my youth gone. Did you go to Robert Atkinson or Thornaby Grange. I am a retired teacher here in Rotherham, been here over 40 years. Regards Sandra Dover
I went to the Queen Street School in 1950. Started in the infants, then moved up to the Juniors. Loved that School. Most of our friends from school were from the neighbourhood. Don’t know where these people are today. Would be lovely to hear from them. Doreen Spiro Nee Quigley.
My mum “nancy” Annie Gibson possibly went to this school . She was born in 1931 and lived in Thornaby. She had a brother Thomas and sister Margaret who would also have gone to the same school. They lived in Laburnam Ave. Mrs Walker was one of the neighbours. Does anyone know my mum.? parents were Nancy and Thomas Gibson.
I was at Queen Street School infants from 1952 to 1954 then juniors 1954 to 1958 then Arthur Head Mr Hoy was the headmaster I remember Mr Crawford Mr Snow Mr Taylor who took the school football team good days
The picture showing Queen St School is of the front “posh” entrance which I nearly didn’t recognise. We used the entrance through the play ground on King St, I think, having walked from the bus stop at the end of Gilmore St. I don’t think I realised that there was a front entrance until a long time after I left in 1947
Mr Crawford came back to Queen St after the war 1945/6 when Mr Hoy was Head Master and Mr Thomas Addison (Tot Addi) was a senior teacher who’s brother taught at Arthur Head.
I went to Queen Street school from 1960 to 1965 I remember the headmistress was called Mrs Randall I remember Mr Crawford, Mr Snow, Miss Lyons, Mrs Newby, Mrs Deagan, Mrs Frosdyke
Great pic! I was a pupil here in the late 60’s. Mr Crawford was headmaster and I sort of remember a Mr Snow and a Mr Lowe.
Lots of memories from this pic!
I went to this school in 1970 to 76. Great times and memories x
