Paul Spencer here from California.I was going through my box of photo's when i found this little gem.I'm going to say it's around 1968/69.The teacher's name is Mr Morgan and the school was barnston lane in Moreton.If anyone can remember the year i'd love to know.I'm top right with the glasses on. Some of the people i still remember,Steve Blake,Simon Hulse, Dave Lamont, Billy New, Linda Coleman, Peter Macmanagan, Billy Brittan, Ian Swanwick, John Stanley, Karen Watts, Norman Walker, Andrew Mansley and Peter Cooke.It would be great if there was a response to this picture.Anyone wanting to get in touch with me can email me at   Speno1961 – at – gmail.com (replace -at- with @).
