I have searched in vain on friends reunited for people who went to Burgoyne rd school in the 1950s but unfortunately there appears to be no trace of such school. My wife (nee Jose Loy )was taught there and left in 1959. does anyone have any info or names of pupils from that era please.

Put your wifes name and details on friends reunited I did the same for the school I attended. It's suprising how people come out of the woodwork.

Arrodbo,

people may not recognize it as 'Burgoyne Road' school. It's officially St Mary's (C of E) and, also officially, its address is Cundy St.

I don't know what the pupils and their families called it in the '50s ?!

While we are on Burgoyne Road. Anyone in contact wiyh Jennifer Gregory had a sister called Bridget (I think) dad had a butchers shop there.

I used to live on Burgoyne rd, back in the 80's and went to the school there..we lived three houses up from the school. My mate Dave, his family had a shop on there.

Hi
I always knew it as Burgoyne Rd School.I went there from1948-1954.I remember Jose and Myrna Loy.I think they also went to the Sunday School just above the school.I bet your wife remembers "Pop " Morris one of the very eccentric teachers in the senior school.
