Sorry I cant recall that name from Carbrook Church of England School on Dunlop Street. I have got a couple of pics of the old school which i will email to anyone who wants one. They will just have to private message me with their email address.

Yipes I can remember being scared my the wrath of Man Wilde. Felt his version of whacko, a cane he called Gerald Bone, many times across the hands. Some of the teachers I admired in later years, names of Denby, Renshaw,Middleton (h/m ), Carr (h/m),

Deakin, Wilde,Renshaw who I thought quite sexy and a looker in my childhood way but a strange nose. Plus I think a canadian teacher McTavish.

Also Castles and Alleys.

Great area to be brought up especially playing in the old bombed buildings

Brother were Alan, Albert and Ken, all still regulars at the Lane. Remember Maureen having a bad accident when a car door hit her in the face.
