Gus_set Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Everyone was frightened of Mr Lyons weren't they. I left Woodthorpe July 1968, I was into 4th year in Sept 68 but left to go to Brook so I could stay one to 5th year and do exams, my class teacher in the 3rd year was Mr Monahan he was a brill teacher. Apart from those already mentioned there was Mr Burgin,Miss Wiles,Mrs Roberts,Mr Mellor,Miss(Ithink)Geldest sad as I am I have all their autographs as well as most of the people in the same year as me.

Cary Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 As a new member to the Sheffield Forum, I came across this website accidentally and have throughly enjoyed reading about teachers/pupils from Woodthorpe School. Many names I too remember ... Mr Sallis, Mr Jennings, Miss Clark (PE teacher) and of course, Mr Frost. I also remember a student teacher called Miss Crisp; she had no control over our class (or any other as I recall) and we must have made her life a misery. Mr Lyons, the swimming coach was a wonderful man and during one of my few visits back to Sheffield, was shocked to discover the swimming pool no longer exists! I was part of the swimming team comprising of Nancy Smith, Margaret Jones, Christine Wilson and myself, Diane Turner in the late 1950's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
