Liz Wood 10 #145 Posted January 20, 2017 Hi I'm researching a family tree for a friend of my parents - Trevor Biggin. He went to Greystones Intermediate School from 1948 to 1952. Does anyone remember him? Cheers Liz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Storey1 10 #146 Posted August 6, 2017 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. Hi Janet, It's Carol Storey formally Whiting your cousin. Me and David are well and we still live together. Would be good to hear from you if poss have you got an e-mail address I could contact you on xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Colling 10 #148 Posted February 27, 2019 Jonathan Smith here again. Musing with my schoolfriend and now brother in law Dave Buffrey about names of classmates. We went to Greystones in 1954. A few boys names still missing and very many girls. We were forcibly deprived of our lovely girls in 1956. Those blue, green, red or yellow check summer dresses still evoke very fond memories. Instead of maturing alongside the girls to form normal friendships we became socially awkward and shy as we were moved to an all male school at Rowlinson. 1 Bob Alcock Anne Ford 2 Terry Austin Patricia Turley 3 Jonathan Beech Carol Middleton 4 Alex Biggin Judith Wragg 5 Booker Andrea Nunwick 6 Hedley Brown Hilary Ward 7 Steve Bryant 8 David Buffrey 9 Roger Clark 10 Frank Cooper 11 Richard Crookes 12 Clive DeBruyn 13 Higgins Derek 14 Peter Godwin 15 Richard Goodman 16 Luther Gregory 17 David Hague 18 John Heath 19 David Hill 20 Roger Knight 21 Terry Knowles 22 David Mellor 23 Tery Newton 24 Michael Pennington 25 Satterthwaite 26 John Siddall 27 John Siddall 28 John Siddall 29 Jonathan Smith 30 Rodney Smith 32 Geoffrey Smith 31 Michael Smith 32 Dave Stringer 33 Keith Timm 34 ???

pvc123 10 #151 Posted April 30, 2020 Havn't looked at this forum for a long time. I was at Greystones Sec Mod 58-62 - then Granville College for a year. I was among a few kids - along with Judith Wilkes, Eileen Sygrove to name a couple, who came from CaterKnowle Junior School (where most passed the 11 plus). I think because of where we came from we were considered a bit snobby - far from it. My name was Pauline Spittlehouse back then and remember most of the teachers mentioned before: Harrison, Wragg, Turly, Hornsey, Renshaw, Manifield, etc etc. Names I remember in my year were the two above plus Sylvia Bolton, Sandra Raines, Jennifer Johnson, Christine Sheldon, Hedley ???, Jean Liversedge, Barbara Garfitt and people I can see but can't remember their names. I was in Class 1A, 2B, 3A and 4A. I also remember a girl called Ann and again I can't remember her second name but I do remember she worked in the evenings with a magician and was the lady in the act who was sawn in half. Anyone remember her name? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
