Miscellaneous Photos
*** UPDATE - Thanks to T-J Hitter for explaining the Jock Ford Photo ***
"I Think Jock Ford left in about 1974. The trek was an annual trip run
by the boy's school by the late Mr Moore and the biology teacher with a
foreign name to Romania. I can remember watching a film of it in
assembly accompanied by Mike oldfield Tubular Bells."
I am not sure who sent these in but they have been languishing in the
files folder for some time.
If you know who sent these in or who is shown in the pictures let me
know here.

Class of 1945
Anyone still around from the war years, I went to Sharmans Cross Boys
in 1940 and left in 1945. The Headmaster was Peter Orret, a
disciplinarian, very strict, but he taught us respect, and where
necessary, manners. Other teachers who come to mind, Messrs Peppitt,
Parker, Horseman, Charles, Madames Bootand Gardener. We were
all caned on a regular basis for minor misdeeds.but it certanly did not
do me any harm, and I probably deserved it anyway.
I was given a sound basic education at Sharmans Cross,and encouraged to
go on to further education,which I did.
The girls were taught upstairs and played in a separate playground from
the boys, I think the idea was to stop us getting distracted.
If there are any re unions in the offing, I would like to hear from
you, and if any old boys and girls would like a little talk on life at
the school during the war time years,School dinners! live ordinance,
what went on in the air raid shelters during air raids!! (not a lot I
can assure you) . We had four "Houses" named after well know local
families.Odingsells (red) Archer (blue) Greswolde (green) Hawes
(yellow).
Well thats a window of life at the school during the war, if you want
more just let me know.
