I think you will find that it is 1970, I was in that form (as it was called in those days) and recognise several faces but not my own. I left De La Salle college in the spring of that year to go to Hove County Grammar School so I suspect it was taken during the summer term. The badge on the blazers is also a De La Salle college badge rather than a later one. In the front row are John Hodiak, Peter Sharp, Mike Shorten, Johnny O'Brien, Luke Grevett many other faces I recognise but the names won't come, it's been a fair old time.

1970 is about right. Peter Sharp and Neil Phillips are next to the two girls top right, who may be Alba and Helen. Top left I believe are Terry Mendes and Romek Jasilek, Luke is 4 along from the right bottom row with John Hodiak on his left. I am the one with all the hair 2 along on the left from John. Mike and Johnny aren't in there as I was in their class the year before but got separated for misbehaving - so they must be in a different photo. Anthony Hemblade must be in here somewhere and that is definitely Linda in the middle. I can remember some good times at this school apart from Mr Feeley who gave me a hard time, mind you I probably deserved it.
