Woodburn Road School

[jackygells]

I used to go to Woodbourn Rd School and also lived on Chelmsford Street at 136.

I left the school in 1954 I think and then went to the Central Tech.

I just posted a message asking for pictures around Chelmsford Street and area and the School.

I was at Woodbourne at this time, but unfortunately only remember the name Wayne Lee out of the above and I think he was a little older than me and I think he had a sister/cousin called Jane. What about the names Peter Moran, Jeremy Proudfoot, Jackie Bolsover, Kay Chin, Angela Haynes, John Haynes, do these names sound familiar? Got a feeling these were around Wayne Lees age.

I was really good friends with your mum, haven't seen her for years. I remember going to her house on Broad Oaks. Will you tell her Ann Whiteley has asked about her, hope she's ok. Is her mum ok, the last time I saw her she was on holiday with Brian in Alcudia. Pass my best wishes onto them both.

Hi I'm new to this thread. I left Woodburn Rd school around 1964, and lived on Cottingham St. Anyone remember a teacher called Mrs Ghosh.She always wore a sari. She was our class teacher. My classmates were Cheryl Smith,now in Australia, Vicky Hallas, Linda Gee, Pat Thompson, Marilyn Smith, Ian Hodgson, Paul Peaker, Fred Bates, John Shaw, Stephen Gregg. I know Stephen had a bad car accident when he was about 17, which left him wheelchair bound, but he made a name for himself in the sporting field. John lived in the shop on Wooburn Rd, on the corner with Arras St, and Marilyn lived virtually opposite the shop. Pat Thompson and Ian Hodgson also lived on Woodburn Rd, near to Staniforth Rd. Vicky lived on Ripon St, near to Linda, who lived on Arras St. Paul Peaker lived on Chelmsford St, and I think Fred lived on Ripon St. Where are they all now? -I'd love to know.
