School Days..
As a boy in the 1950s I went to Christchurch Primary School in Este Road. I remember vividly going to church in a hall in the old church grounds while the new church was being built. The old church (shown in this photo) was destroyed during the war. I even remember nagging my mother to buy a brick with my name on it as a donation for the new building. I just wish I could remember the Vicar's name at that time so if anybody can remember him or any of his staff at the time let me know.

Hi Raymond, I also went to the school about the same time, the vicar's surname was Mr Gorden and his son was John Gorden. Let me know if you get this message. My email is: j.carter2008@btinternet.com. From John Carter
