philip glenn   10 #1 Posted January 11, 2009 Hi, Did anyone go to St. John Fisher school in the 1960's, and do you remember Mr Davidson the history teacher?  It is now closed and is a fire and rescue station!!!  It would be nice to contact anybody who was there...interesting times!!!

kaytbones   10 #2 Posted August 21, 2010 I went there in the mid sixties - we emigrated to Canada in 1966. My teacher was Miss Curley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Dirtydog   10 #3 Posted August 24, 2010 Gosh! I remember Miss Curly; although I went to St John Fishers Junior school in Hackenthorpe, she was my form teacher there in the early 70's . As I remember she always wore lots of layers of clothes - even in the height of summer. Sadly my memories of her are not good ones.

Plain Talker   11 #4 Posted August 25, 2010 Can we establish whether we're talking about St John Fisher secondary at Woodhouse/Handsworth, or St John Fisher primary at Hackenthorpe?  My stepson went to SJF primary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
echo beach   518 #5 Posted August 25, 2010 Can we establish whether we're talking about St John Fisher secondary at Woodhouse/Handsworth, or St John Fisher primary at Hackenthorpe? My stepson went to SJF primary.  The clue's in the opening post PT. If it's now used by the fire service it's the old St John Fisher Secondary school building on Beaver Hill Road, twixt Handsworth & Woodhouse.
