Bradley Street Infants School

Was at the school from 1950 to 1956.

Other teachers - 2 sisters named Miss Rees, Mrs Turner, Mrs Swift, Miss Beck, Mrs Jones.

I was at the school from 1951 - 1958 and remember that Miss Wilcox had a secretary called Miss Wells who put a plaster on my forehead when someone threw a stone at me. My first class was Miss Rees (the plumper of the 2) then Mrs Turner, Miss Harper and Mr Wrench (who's classroom was in Carter St.). I was then in Miss Willisford's class and then Miss Goodall's for part of the year when 10 of us were moved up to Mr Stewart's class (in a hut next to Silver St.). My last class was Miss Rock's.

Here are a few more names that have come to mind from my class although I may be remembering some from the Girls’ High and they may not have been in Bradley Street…
Robert Oram, Henry Pugh, Robert Horden (I believe they were cousins) Frank Allsop, David Bostock, Angela Russell, Susan Dankworth, Sonia Gallimard, Barbara Hanley, (Rita Fanborough?)
I suppose it’s years of hearing the register being read out that some of those names are still in the memory bank!
Christine née Fox

That should read “Sonia Gallimore”!

Here are a few more names .Gillian Eyre, Cedric Falkener, John Shaw, Robert Hill, Roger Parry, Alan Mellor, David Sergeant, Timothy Deville, and Pete Sambrook.
Wishing you and your family a Happy Christmas.
