Davidson Road Secondary School

A Memory of Croydon.

My name is Hazel Lynch (nee Greenslade) I remember Davidson Road school with fond memories I left in 1947 after serving as School Captain. Miss Linington was Head Mistress, and Miss Deane, Miss Davies and Miss Emdin were teachers. In my last year on Friday afternoons we were allowed to choose our own activity, I chose Miss Emdins class where she narrated the story weekly of the '39 Steps' You could hear a pin drop, she was a superb story teller. Although the boys and girls were completely separate, one year a rounders match was arranged boys v girls and one of our girls knocked out the back-stops teeth! My mother attended school here also my children Corinne and Noel Evans. I am in touch with Marion a former pupil, who lives in Western Australia, also June Phillips, Marion became a Nurse, June a shorthand typist and I a Clerical Supervisor so the school did us proud!!
