Woodhouse west School


Recommended Posts

Ahhh so happy memories of Woodhouse West.

I was there from 53 to 59...my older sisters and brother all went there as well.

I remember Mr. Vaughan...best headmaster ever, Nora Richardson...as said nobody ever crossed her, Mr. Thorpe....remember his old leather briefcase, Miss Moody...did she ever have a different hairstyle, Mrs. Griffiths...she had room with fireplace, Miss Bingham, Mr. Wallace, Mr. Beeston, Miss Tongue

I also remeber when school was remodelled...we sat in class in our coats it was so cold.

Does anyone remember Jacqueline Hardy getting hit by the bus on Coisley Hill and losing part of her leg

 

I remember Mr. Beeston ( Cocky ) who didn't like using the cane and Miss Richardson ( Nora ) Mr. Wallace ( Edgar ) my favourite Mr Thorpe - I can't remember a nickname but when he taught my class there were 52 children in

it and - I may be wrong - but I think Mr Vaughan's nickname was Ragman.

I'm not sure about Jaqueline Hardy's accident - but it stirs a memory
