Ally68 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I was in Weston. Can't remember us winning anything much. I think Millouses won everything mostly! True, even in my year Weston came last in everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scout Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I was at King Ecgberts in the 60's-70' and the houses then were (if I can remember correctly) St. Margaret St.Anne St Hilda St. Cecelia St. Joan There may have been another one but I can't remember (such a long time ago) They could also have changed when we went comp with Abbeydale in 1969 I think it was and thryintroduced BOYS. They probably wouldn't like all the female saints names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartempion Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Notre Dame 47-52 Red Our Lord Green St Joseph Blue Our Lady Gold Blessed Mere Julie who founded the Notre Dame order of nuns. Hazel When I was at Notre Dame in the early 90s it was Red - Firth Yellow - Oakbrook (or was it Oakwood...?) Green - Hallam Blue - Cavendish Actually I'm not sure if they're right at all... But they were definitely named after something other than the blessed holies. Incidentally, was Sister Conceptor there when you were? I remember her shuffling around the halls. All us kids used to speculate that she had actually died many years previously and been used in some mummification experiment. She was one of the last of the nuns to go I think... Very old she was...

deadheadfred Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 De La Salle 1969-1976 (showing my age now). The houses were; Kirkman Ludlam Lockwood Clitheroe All names of English Catholic martyrs. House points were awarded, with a day-out to some scummy east coast resort for all members of the winning house at the end of the school year, tho' I must admit they became more entertaining when we were in the sixth-form and could get away with sitting in the pubs during opening hours.
