St Patricks and St Peters schools 50s 60s 70s

Recommended Posts

Margaret, some of my older brothers and sisters attended St. Pat's in the 60's but none on your list. The only name I recognise is Tommy Nestor who I believe was in the same class as my brother Sean. There were nine of us who were taught at St. Patrick's and afterwards at St. Peter's.

Thank you, Paul T. I am in touch with three other pupils, and we would love to meet as many as possible. I am not confident about finding any more, particularly as the girls may have a married surname. Never mind, it may prove fruitful. The same details have been shared on Facebook.

 

Best wishes,

 

Margaret Eaton (nee Burke)

Hi I also went to St. Peter's, and remember Pauline parks, Teresa peel, Ann O'Reilly, Michael Gibson, Robert Harding, John charlesworth. Maureen Wheelan, Marie Keogh, Christine Kingham, Alice Thorpe, Christine Kulinski. I remember Mr Macnerney, Mr. Farrell, Mr. Walsh, Mr Anyon, and of course Sister Josephinea and Sister Veronica, who went on to be head teacher at St Thomas Mores, Geenoside, where my children went, and also my grandsons!

My name was Wanda Dyszlewicz. I also remember Father O'Reilley, Father Kirkham and Father Bedford.

Hi Anne, I remember your name, yes I was friends with Marie Vaz all through my time at St. Peter's, but sadly lost touch when we left. I moved away from Yorkshire soon after I married in 1967 and only came back in 2000. It's interesting to see names from my school days. I often wonder how my old classmates have made out in life. Regards Wanda
