Ex Chaucer School pupils


Recommended Posts

did anyone go to chaucer. i was there from 1963-1967. in the fourth year i was in mr dowsons class. mr newham was deputy head and mr darville was head teacher. mr collinson was the library teacher does that jog anybodys memory.

 

I was at Chaucer from 1963 - 1965 when my family emigrated to Australia. My name then was Janet Armitage and we lived at Fox Hill. I remember Mr Darville very well. I'm trying to locate Pat Meah from Parsons Cross, does anyone know her, or where she is now?

I left Chaucer in 1978 and remember all the above sports car lovers - Me Matthews was my form techer for 2 years - his was a blue MG!

matthews sailed a little close to the wind on more than one occasion,getting a "little close "to female pupils,once to my knowledge,in his lesson,another time on a school cruise.We used to call him JESUS ,because without his glasses on,he looked like robert powell,who starred in "JESUS OF NAZARETH". Mr Walker was"CLIFF",he looked really like a blonde Cliff Richard,Mr Wright was "WEREWOLF" due to his unkempt hair and beard,Mr Pashley was "JOE 90" or "ELVIS(Pashley)",Mr Darmon was "BRAINS" after the thunderbirds character.

I Remember them all! Mr Matthews did sail close to the wind - he once asked me to stand on the cabinets under the windows in the art room to stick snowflakes on so he could look at my legs! bit of a perv!

Yes I was, remember a couple of them - Peter Hiil, Dicky Akers, and Carol Savoury.

 

Deborah Smith, Karen Walsh, Stuart Hibberd, Philip Jessop were some others in the same year.
