The
Photograph
Thank you
to Andrew Robertson for sending me this photo. Andrew tells me that
Joe Day, husband of Irene Day (nee Sharrock), has asked him to send this
photo.
Andrew
added:
"This photo is of the
class that left from Leith Walk Primary School for pastures new in 1957.
The photo was taken by our teacher, Mr Harper."
This photo would in fact have been taken some time between September
and December 1956. See 'Recollections 1'
below.
These are the names that Andrew remembers - with help from Ernie
Killerby, George Priestly, Robert Moffat, Irene Day (nee Sharrock) and her
husband Joe Day who all met on April 4, 2008.
