Anybody go around 1965

i was at wybourn school till 1967,let me know who you can remember,thanks:)

Went to school there 1960 -1970.
Do you remeber Mr Mullen the English teacher(senior school) or Mr Smith (Juniors) who was Rounders mad and used to throw balls to pupils during lessons .. just to help us practice catching!!
Also, do you remember the health clinic that was in the top yard just up from the caretakers house. Going to see the nurse and being sent home with a blue card if you felt poorly.

:wave: Yes Carol I remember... I left 69... do you remember Mr Finch who was like a brick outhouse...also Miss Dinsdale or Mr Heart who used to take pe... happy days... sometimes.

Yes TREK happy days, sometimes!
I've always thought how talented and brave those teachers were to have chosen to teach at our school.
I wonder how the likes of Mr Finch and Mr Riley, the science teacher, would go down in similar schools nowadays.
I remember Mr Finch throwing the board rubber at people who talked while he was teaching. Do you think it was true that he was in the army before entering the teaching profession?
He used to threaten pupils with a large brown, rubber ,babies dummy that he kept in a cup in the cupboard... if they sat with their fingers in their mouths they had to put the dummy in!

:thumbsup: Who knows for sure but I liked him and the things he did to keep the kids in line... he used to take some of us boys op to Norton to drive an old car... he pulled some stunts

I went to wybourn, left school in 1968, left wybourn in 1976 never been back since , i did see alan finch at the reunion about 10-15 years ago,then was invited to a barbecue with jim geddes and ernest wild at his home, great bloke, and yes he was in the military police, south africa before joining wybourn, last i heard he had his own driving school, i have some fond memories of wybourn, did'nt do me any good in the furture though, still i kept out of prison,

Come on you lot lets have some more memories of the wybourn,

my god, it was a long time back. 1967,8. he took some of our class up norton 2 driive

I teach at Wybourn school now... Any comments on what it was like in the 1970s. Also what was the area like in the 1970s?

I was there till Dec 68.

i was there till 19 90 loved it miss wild and miss barrat were well hard lol

I left Wybourn School in December 68 but still I recognize all the teachers name mentioned especially Mr. Finch I remember him catching me running down the corridor and I paid for it big time and what about Mr. Carrick-Smith. Maybe someone knows some of my ex-school mates there was Barry Hobson, David Shaw, Richard Walker, Stuart Kirkham, Lesley Oxley and many other whose names are lost over the years. As far as I am aware my Aunt Norma still lives in Manor Oaks Close but haven’t been in contact for many years.
So from 1968 to 2005 I’ve lived in Australia and been back only once in that time but still support the Boys in Blue and White Stripes no matter what league there in. If anyone should know the guys above please forward their address or email address to me it would be greatly appreciated.

I left the Wybourn estate in 1976 never been back since, except last year i drove though to have a nossy, did'nt stop, but someone still nicked my wheel trims.
Seriously! back in 1950 to 1970 you could go to bed with your back door unlocked, did'nt have to put a padlock on the coal bunker and if you had 10 pieces of star & green'un hung in the outside loo at night you had 10 pieces in the morning.

David Shaw
