Thanks for the memories to Great Plum and Debbie G-P. Off-hand I can remember a couple more OBs in Common Room - Paul Deller (twice!) adn Jenny Barwise (now left). A bit of research should produce a few more.

Tod Ramos went back for a short time under Dr Newsome to teach art and he caused a few changes which I can't go into here

Are there any masters/mistresses at the school now who have been there for decades?

Good God they are still there? That is incredible I felt sure that all staff when we were there would have to have retired by now.

I am not surprised they are, they have been at CH the entire time? If so that is some faithful service in need of recognition

I know that JDS was there from 1966 - 2004 -that's 38 years...

I think DJOM did a similar stretch and other teachers like Mr James, Mr Sillett, Mr Martin must have been there for a similar time...
