Stanford Road Junior School

Class photos c1955-1960
By Sue Loveridge nee Shires

I hope these photos will provide some happy memories.

I think they were taken around 1955 - 1960 when I left to go to Varndean Grammar School.

I will try to put names to some of the faces - I can barely recognise myself! Perhaps if you can identify yourself - or even someone else - you can leave a message below.

My eyesight is not so good as it could be, but I was looking for Jacqueline Levett and Robert Bienkowski who were in my class at Patcham County Secondary School. Do the names ring any bells?

Hi, how wonderful to hear from you. I was the second one in from the left in the bottom photograph. I too went back to look at the school - it was great to see it so little changed. Can you remember any of the skipping rhymes or ball games we played?

Some great photos!

I have spotted myself, Loraine Cowton, picture number 3. I am first on the right in the back row. Unfortunately I do not remember anyone's names.

Hello June, in photo two of Stanford Road Junior classes I am in the 3rd row back and 2nd in from the right. I am now retired, happy and well and living in Crowborough. I have lost all touch with everyone from that time but lovely to see the photos.

Hello Sue and Liz (and others). What a great set of pictures. It seems you have nearly all the names now, but here are a couple of additions. Julian was Julian Hindson who lived on Dyke Road. Julian, Nigel Mountain and myself were always good friends and kept up contacts until we were about 15 years old. I recently found out that Nigel died some years back very early but I do not know any details. Another good friend was Jonathan (or a variation on that spelling) Craven (not Peter as stated by Liz). One of the missing names is, I think, Graham Watkins. In Liz's list I suspect he may be the boy between myself and Stephen, front row picture 2, and possibly in the front row of the school orchestra picture - names ? / Jonathon Craven, Graham Mussard, Stephen Leonard, Graham Watkins (?) / David Ward - me - / Mark (?) / ?.  Pictures 2 & 4 appear to be the last year this class was at Stanford 1960/61 - the Smithers year. In picture 3 who was the teacher at the left? - Mr. Maugham or Mr. Manton? Best wishes all.

By David Ward (16/01/2011)

It is possibly Mr Manton, I think my teachers were Miss Burgess, Mr Sheppard (whose daughter Yvonne also attended the school), Mr Manton and Mr Smithers, but at my age .... Best Wishes for 2011
