View Full Version : Reunion of 1958 Nether Edge GS OBs CHAIRBOY 17-08-2008, 14:14 An article in Aug 16's Star informs of a Nether Edge GS reunion for those in Class 5 in 1958 - the year the school closed - hence 50 years on! The meeting is on Wednesday August 20 from 5pm at the Mercure St.Pauls Bar in the city centre.

The building has now been converted into apartments I believe. Duffems.

I remember Mr.Spinks very well, like all (or nearly all!) staff of Brincliffe he was very fair, strict, and respected by staff and pupils alike. Mr. Hill was a typical "Mr.Chips" and didn't enjoy handing out punishment. I recall that there was a Brincliffe re-union in 1993, there may have been more since. Duffems |
