I remember some cars being man-handled up at the top of the bank but didn't remember that Phippo was involved :joy:. Mr Bloxham's french classes were always a bit chaotic - I'd be surprised if anyone ever learned anything. I remember that for a while his classroom was in some sort of portacabin...

Great to see the photos Janice. I sadly never got to go on the school's foreign trips and remember being really envious when Mr Newel insisted on showing us the slideshow of them lol. I think I can recognise you, but as you say, the old 126 cameras didn't quite capture the details very well - I...
