I was at St Lukes in the late 1960s. Mr Dunkerley was the headmaster and Mr Tredrea was our football coach. The pool was where I learned to swim. I also remember a War Memorial in the Hall, and Mr Bentham who had once played for Everton.

I went to St Luke's Infants School (1928) the headmistress was Miss Winkworth. Then St Luke's Junior Mixed (1928 - 1932), Headmaster Doctor Raisbeck. I remember Miss Dodge because she took us swimming in the school baths, though I was taught to swim by a man from the News Chrobnicle at the Black Rock Pool.
I went to St Luke's Senior Boys (1932 - 1936), also headed by Doctor Raisbeck, with teachers Godfree, and "Nunky" Lloyd. We had physical training (PT) twice a week (for which we had to change in the class rooms, no locker rooms for us). PT was conducted in the large hall and the best part was called tumbling, consisting of throwing yourself about on large (mostly unyielding) doormats.
At regular intervals the Corporation sent a Mr Watters (I think) to check that our PT class was conducted properly. Mr Watters was a small man who bounced around like a large rubber ball and could do all the exercises far better than we could. Best of all was one afternoon a week whenwe went up on to the Race Hill and down to Whitehawk Bottom, to play cricket in the summer and football in the winter.
I failed the eleven-plus in 1933 so didn't have to travel across Brighton to attend Intermediate or Varndean. I was forced to leave school at the end of 1936 because I was 14. I went to night school to finish my education, until the war started when I was sent to work at Crawley Aircraft as a welder. I also joined the RAF Volunteer Reserve, and when aircraft work became less urgent, in 1944, I went into the RAF as a flight engineer.

I went to St Luke's CS Boys School up until 1963. Left UK in 1974 and spent about 30 years in South Africa. Now living in Oxfordshire. I remember Alan Clifford and Rodney Marchant, can't place Mike Church. Hi to you all out there.

My husband went to this school. His name is Nick Dawkins, now living in Swindon.

I went to St Luke's Infants and Junior Schools from the late 50s into the early 60s. I have been attending the annula Past Pupil's reunion since 2002 and have recently been involved in helping with the restoration appeal for the WW1 War Memorial in the top hall of the school. After a busy time trying to get funding from all sorts of sources and thanks to a huge sum of money from Brighton and Hove City Council the restoration has been given the green light. Work started during the summer holidays 2007 with the conservators moving in for several weeks. The main work has been completed but there are still aspects to the project to be completed and funding still needed. The school is planning a rededication service in November, so if you would like to know the details please contact the school. Those unable to attend can contact the school to arrange a visit at a suitable time for the school (obviously) or alternatively should be soon able to access a web site which contains details of the artist and all of those named on the memorial. Look for "st lukes war memorial".

I went to St Lukes School from the 1950s until 1963 and apart from the Choir I can honestly say I hated every day I was there. Mr Taylor was our choir master and he put heart and sole into the choir which enabled us to win numerous cups at the Brighton Festival.

Mrs Back was my first teacher in the Junior School and was the best teacher there. The others did not like the fact that I was shy and quiet and would always go out of their way to put me down.

Miss Edgell was the headmistress. Some of the other teachers I remember was Mrs Morgan (scary) Miss Wallace and Mr Tamplin. Miss Beaugard (never did get the hang of french), Mr Daffin and Mr Starling.

I attended St Luke's until 1970. I was in class 4L, Mr Guildford was my headmaster. Our football team used to play on Saturday mornings at Whitehawk playing fields. Oh happy days!

I attended St. Lukes Infants and Junior Schools from 1962 until 1968.
I can remember headmistress Miss Edgall and teachers Mrs Batchelor, Miss Crowley, Mr Dunkerley, Miss Beuagard and Mr Daffin.

I was at St Lukes from 1971 to 1976. Mr Dunkerley was the first headmaster until his sudden death in about 1972, when Mr Daffin took over. The teacher I most remember was Miss Holgate. Her classroom was painted in the same colours as Brighton Station. I remember the portacabin classroom being lifted over the wall into the playground by a crane - the school was crammed with kids and needed the extra space. We were about 33 in each class and 3 classes per year.

I to went to St Luke's from 1969 to 1975. My mum, Mrs Joseph, was the school secretary from 1971 until 2002, she is now retired and lives in Hove.

I went to St Luke's from 1972 to 1979. Mr Daffin was the headmaster. There were a number of notable teachers at the time. In the infants there was Mrs Radcliffe and Miss Laurie. In the Juniors there was Mrs Wallcott and Miss Bierski. I had a great time at the school and made some good friends at the time.

I'm coming to the reunion for the first time, end of June 09. Looking forward to that. Whilst I'm at it, does the infant playground wall still have the tiger painted on it? I helped to paint that, which explains why I've been working in offices since the age of 17! Funny that. Not been in St Lukes since the end of 1980. I wonder if Ron Guildford will turn up? Might just e-mail him and frighten him again.

I went to St Lukes infants and juniors from around 1959/60. I don't remember much about the infants apart from being in a photo for the Argus with the headmistress and a basket of easter eggs! I was in 1a (Miss Back) 2a (Miss Girling) 3a (Miss Morgan) 4a (Mr Daffyn). I remember a Susan Wellman (red curly hair, lived in Freshfield Rd). Is this a sister of Ruth above?

I also remember Miss Back and Miss Girling and i remember Mr Daffyn. I'd like to know of anyone that remembers me, I went to Patcham after that. Before I went to St Lukes, I went to Rugby Rd school infants.

I was at St Lukes senior school for boys in Finsbury Road, Brighton. I was in 4b, I remember a boy called ? Bradley Michael Mckay Edward Brailard. I am trying to trace Michael Mckay, he would be 61years old now, he used to live at the back of Elm Grove in Agnes St. I think any help would be much appreciated.

On the opening day of the 1961 autumn term, Miss Back dropped a large bottle of ink when taking the first register for Class 1A. She was standing on the raised dias that used to be at the front of the room. Somewhere under the lino the mark's probably still there!

Ruth's older sister - I remember Mr Daffin (fondly known as Daffy Down Dilly) the most inspirational teacher ever - I'm now a teacher myself. I was in the same class as Cleia, Thea & Anne, Philip and Michael.

I went to St lLukes from 1975-1980. The head master was Mr cchurch then came Mr Striker (his first assembly he first introduced us to Jerusalem with Miss Anderson banging out on the piano- since then it's been a favourite of mine. My fav teachers were Miss Whitelaw, and Mr Dumpfrey. Those were the days. Mr Cooper or as we called him super cooper was the dude though, but this is the 1 million pound Question. Who was the caretaker? and what were his sons called? Here's a clue- he was greek.

Hi Susan, I really must dig out the old class photos including the prefects of 1965/66. I remember Thea Thompson, Ann Down, Celia Randall too - where are you living now?

I was at St Lukes senior school for boys in Finsbury Road, Brighton from 1960 -63. I was in all the B classes. The teacher I remember most was Mr Homer, the History teacher who drove an old soft top Morris. We used to cycle out to his house in Millyard Crescent, Woodingdean and he and his wife would give us lemonade and cakes. The other teachers i remember are Mr Wilson (Maths) and Mr Tanner (Geography).

Hi there, I remember my school days - just like at Queens Park, I had many friends to remember here too. I do remember a few teachers too. I lived at Pankhurst Avenue. I remember the teachers Mr Tanner, Mr Guildford, Mr Tamlin, Miss Beaugard, the French Teacher. Friends were at the time Tony Dickens, Ian Welch and Simon Collins. I remember no girls names though. I so hope you can jog any memory of people reading this. Get in touch pjhorny58@hotmail.co.uk..many thanks

Hear there's a reunion Saturday 9th July - where and when, please?
