Greystones sec mod school

[Jenn_johnson 10]

My name was Jennifer Johnson and it would be great if anyone can remember me, I went to Greystones in 1958.

[Hetty 12]

I went to that school 1956-60 The head at that time was Mr Aizlewood, had a son called Martin, I remember all(?) of the teachers from that time!! Most of the pupils in my form, Barbara Fletcher, Christine Monks Christine Jackson, Pauline Thorpe Susan Croft, Hazel Chadwick (Miss Hornseys pet!!) Barry Barnes, Brian Boulby, Tina Cullen Dian Smith, Elaine Gibbs, the Gascoigne twins etc etc!!! often wonder how they' and the others have done. Like me they will be in thier 60's now!!!!

Hello Wendy. Not been on the Forum long and just seen your thread. I was at Greystones and left in 1959, so a bit before you. Carol Whiting was my cousin and she had a brother called David. Her dad, my uncle Bernard used to keep the Vine on Hodgson Street. My best mate at the time was Christine Marsh and she used to live opposite in the end house on Hodgson street. Long gone now, like a lot of the Sheffield I used to know and love.

Christine Marsh was in my class if memory serves me right. She went on the school trip to Switzerland. I also remember Kathleen Fowler

Hi Hetty. Must be another Christine Marsh. There is no way Christines mum would have been able to afford the trip to Switzerland. She was a single parent with six kids and to be kind, not very well off. Munch and me had some great times though. Las time I saw her was about 1975. I lived on Fentonville Street at the time and was working behind the bar in the Cross Guns.

Me again. Forgot to mention Kath Fowler was probably in your year if you left in 1960. I know she was a year younger than Chris and me. Do you remember a Joan Clark who used to go to Greystones and lived on Angus Square or Daniel Cocking who lived on Angus Terrace I think. They were both in my year.

Hi katedave. God, That's a blast from the past. What form were you in? I was also in Mrs Harrison's class but I don't remember your name. She made me sit right at the front of the class next to Francis Fairbrother, he was always playing pocket billiards. Dirty little tyke. I used to go out with Dougie Stevenson. He was mates with Derek Marriott. We used to knock about together. Do you remember Christine Marsh and Kath Fowler. Kath was a year younger than me. I remember Joan Titman, she certainly lived up to her name. She was head girl and she knocked about with Arlene Richardson if you remember. Once had a row with Mrs Harrison. Joan Titman (teachers pet), Arlene Richardson and me forgot our homework and she wanted to put me in detention but was only going to give the other two lines so I refused to do the detention unless they did it as well. Needless to say I got the lines instead. Did you go up from St.Silas? I went from Pomona Street. My name was Janet Whiting back then. I remember Brian Fowden's name. Nice to be in touch though. Thanks for the memories.
