He did and helped me put on a production of "Waiting for Godot"

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

Ah yes - Mr Deller. He was quite a card.

I think he is back at the school now isn't he?

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

Messrs. Avenell, Torkington and Maddren, I believe (from our time, anyway).

Yes, i think that might be all of them that have been there for that time.

What about Mrs Higgins?

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.

Mrs. C told me that they're due to retire this year.

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...

Ron Lorimer was there a long time as was JM Carrington and Mr Goodall.

Of course, and Mr and Mrs Sims...

and if we think further back - Mr Kirby...
